Ellen Hopkins
Three female friends face midlife crises in a no-holds-barred exploration of sex, marriage, and the fragility of life.
Holly: Filled with regret for being a stay-at-home mom, she sheds 60 pounds and loses herself in the world of extramarital sex. Will it bring the fulfillment she is searching for?
Andrea: A single mom and avowed celibate, she watches her friend Holly’s meltdown with a mixture of concern and contempt. Holly is throwing away what Andrea has spent her whole life searching for—a committed relationship with a decent guy. So what if Andrea picks up Holly’s castaway husband?
Marissa: She has more than her fair share of challenges—a gay, rebellious teenage son, a terminally ill daughter, and a husband who buries himself in his work rather than face the facts.
As one woman’s marriage unravels, another’s rekindles. As one woman’s family comes apart at the seams, another’s reconfigures into something bigger and better. In this story of connections and disconnections, one woman’s up is another one’s down, and all of them will learn the meaning of friendship, betrayal, and forgiveness.
Unflinchingly honest, emotionally powerful, surprisingly erotic, Triangles is the ultimate pause-resister. Hopkins’s gorgeous, expertly honed poetic verse perfectly captures the inner lives of her characters. Sometimes it happens like that. Sometimes you just get lost....
Get lost in the world of Triangles, where the lives of three unforgettable women intersect, and where there are no easy answers.

I wish holly found out about Andrea's affair with her husband, but I also really dislike holly's character. she is arrogant, selfish, and borderline narcissistic. shes always going on about things she wants to say to her kids, but never does. just do it, coward.
in Andrea's defense, if my friend was in a wonderful relationship and used me as a cover to cheat on her husband, I would resent her too. but what happened to their relationship in the end? When Andrea began questioning her paternity, but that thread was never explored, it was like drama for dramas sake.
It's like everything was leading up to shelby's death, but only two characters mention her, and only one mentions any real attachment to her. it was a little hard to keep track of Andrea's love life with so many different suitors, all of which she finds something wrong with. I know that's kind of the point, but geez girl, live a little.
there are some inconsistencies with character development. Marissa's first introduced as almost hating her daughter. a very bitter, sarcastic character. I liked that. it was interesting for a character to break the "suffering parent" archetype. But as the story went on it was obvious how confused and ashamed she was. Shane was introduced as a complete asshole kid, but has a complete shift into arguably the best character. it was almost like Ellen was trying to set up Marissa's family life as extremely dysfunctional, due to their lives being overtaken and navigated by a sick daughter. but then it took on a more stereotypical flavor, like Ellen forgot what direction she wanted to go with it. on the flip side, I absolutely loved the storyline with shelby's illness. I actually cried when she died.
there are a few characters who are introduced, and then nothing comes from them. like Sahara. Holly was warned about her attachment problems and I wish that was explored more. and what happened with Brian, really?
also, maaaybe listen to this one with headphones. lots of sex.
the ending was a little lackluster (spoilers)

This is my first listen from this author, I tend to choose my books based on who's narrarating it and I really love January Lavoy, as usual her character was my favorite, Holly. I encourage you to take the journey with these women, I wasn't disappointed and I'm sure you won't be either.
Uniquely honest, I recommend you listen...

I didn't mind the narration of the book. I was a little confused because I thought with 3 characters and 3 narrators they would have one for each character...That is not the case. Some of the impressions of the male characters and teenage parts were hard to read and very obnoxious but not bad enough to ruin the story.
If you are familiar with Ellen Hopkins or if you are looking for a REAL to life racey adult novel for women...give this a shot!! :)
One more success for the amazing Ellen Hopkins
