It's the eve of Mary Sue's birthday and Gretchen, Dixie, Pamela, and she are gathered at the lakeside cabin where The Girlfriends Club has sought refuge for years.

5.0 out of 5 stars A LOVELY BOOK FOR ALL WOMEN 22 Oct 2002
By Heather Marshall Negahdar - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Judith Henry Wall latest novel, The Girlfriends Club takes us to the state of Kansas.

Four women, who have been friends since childhood are now in their mid forties and learning what life is like at mid-life after being divorced.

Meet MARY SUE the spark amongst them, who is about to have a breast operation. She is involved with Walter; a dentist since her divorce, but even then, she cannot get her ex-husband Barry off of her mind.

DIXIE the flower shop owner who never complains but has good reason not to. She has hidden a secret from her friends for some time now.

GRETCHEN the tall blond sports oriented woman who hates her husband with a passion, and wishes he were dead.

PAMELA the only one of the women still married to her husband Clay; a Judge who directs her every move.

However, on Mary Sue's 45th birthday, the day before her operation the girls decide to gather at Dixie's Lakeside retreat to celebrate her birthday with dinner and drinks and lots of moral support. They enjoy themselves but soon realize that Walter; Mary Sue current beau who was supposed to join them for drinks, is noticeably absent. Having had a bit too much fun, Mary Sue goes off to bed early leaving her friends to entertain him when he arrives.
Walter turns up intoxicated and totally out of it and then something very awry happens....something accidental...and the women make a conscious decision not to let Mary Sue know of this occurrence.

What happens that night will live in the memories of the three women for the rest of their lives. See how their lives are played out after this incident and I'm sure you'll have little anxious moments waiting to see what transpires next.

Besides the little mystery here, there are some tender and heartfelt moments which will keep the reader eager and glued to the book as I was.

This would be a wonderful Xmas or Birthday gift for a good friend especially if bought in the hard cover edition. Happy reading!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lovely Friendship Saga 24 Feb 2004
By Bree Avalon - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
All of these women will touch you in a special way when you begin reading this book. There is a mystery element that adds a twist that the reader does not expect and I was vastly entertained while reading this story. Sad, witty, inspirational, and endearing, THE GIRLFRIENDS CLUB is a must read for all women!

4.0 out of 5 stars A "girlie/feel good" book 26 Jan 2004
By T. Kenard - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I thought this book was pretty good - I read it in 2 days. I was glad to get to the end when everyone came to the realization that they could indeed function without a man - a few of the ladies (gretchen, pam & marysue) made it seem like they thought so little of themselves that they went out with/married any kind of man, just to say they had a man - which is so totally OUT. Dixie is the only one who seemed really cool to me, mostly because she had come to grips with her husband divorcing her & moved on. But all in all, it was a pretty good read.
