Another Marian Keyes

Last Chance Saloon by Marian Keyes

This was not one of my favorite Marian Keyes books.  It was lacking in many areas including the humor, British voice, and life of the happily single woman.  

It was definitely a more serious book, with the main idea being there might not be a tomorrow so life your life now, which I could appreciate,  but it seemed that the way to happiness for 2 of the main characters that happiness revolved around having a boyfriend.

It was a good read, about three main characters – Tara, the one who always felt that she had to have a boyfriend – somewhat came around to the idea that she didn’t need a man to complete her life by the end of the book – Katherine – the single by choice gal, although it turned out she really wasn’t single by choice entirely and then there was Fintan, the gay man who was in  a strong committed relationship.   I could definitely relate to these characters – as they reflected many people in my own life.
