Kelly’s Review:
A Girl’s Best Friend is the second novel in Kirstin Billerbeck’s Spa Girls series. The Spa Girls are three friends in the San Francisco area – Lily, Morgan and Poppy. The Spa Girls met in college and have been friends ever since. They are all approaching 30 and are dealing with various phases in their lives. Dealing includes many trips to their favorite spa, of course.
This novel’s central character is Morgan. Morgan is one who seems to “have it all” from all outward appearances. Her father is in the diamond business and Morgan’s job has always been to showcase her father’s jewel collections and to just be on the fashion scene. Morgan is wealthy and has so much at her disposal, but she finds that material things don’t always add up to happiness and certainly don’t bring her love.
In this novel, Morgan begins to question her father’s motives and winds up on her own. She has to learn what she can live with and without. I felt that Morgan’s character was very superbly developed. Throughout the course of the novel, she was revealed to have her flaws just like everyone else. She was real and I felt that I could relate to her trials in the way that her actions and reactions were written.
This is a great read. There are many reminders throughout the book of putting our trust in God’s sovereignty. There are encouraging and uplifting examples of dealing with low times in the walk of faith. This book is more than “chick lit” , without a doubt. I recommend it whole-heartedly. In fact, I recommend this series. I’ve moved on now to the third and final book in the series and I can’t wait to review it here as well! Excellent book, great series!!
