Publisher's summary

In the 86 Bloomberg Place series, four diverse young women with varying levels of faith, differing interests, and unique personal issues share a four-bedroom bungalow in an energetic college town. In Spring Broke, Kendall's housemates help her plan a garage sale to pay off her accumulated shopoholic debt. Megan is trying to decide whether to quit her job and pursue work more meaningful than designing wealthy people's homes. Anna must battle her family's condescending attitudes toward her Caucasian boyfriend, Edmond. And Lelani is trying to work up the nerve to go home to Maui, where her controlling parents are caring for her infant daughter. Lelani invites her roommates to come to Hawaii with her, but far from being a carefree spring vacation, the trip turns into an emotional opportunity for the housemates to confront their deeper fears and work through the most troubling aspects of their relationships, with surprising and rewarding outcomes.

The narrator was awful! It was not melody carlson's best work but the narrator really killed it.

Fine

The story is okay and sorta cringe but it’s also kinda sweet. The narrator did fine and I’m impressed by her ability to create different voices.

Pro-Life Propaganda Disguised as Chick Lit

If you are pro-choice, do NOT listen to this audiobook, or you may gag. This book should come with a warning attached - honestly, it is nothing but pro-life propaganda. It comes complete with a girl with an unwanted pregnancy and considering abortion portrayed as a promiscuous, bitchy, materialistic, clueless airhead, while a girl who chose to have her baby (and give it to her parents, who wanted another child) is portrayed - big surprise - as a sweet, caring, extremely intelligent, devout church-goer (because we all know that's how pro-choice and pro-life women ALWAYS are in real life). I honestly tried to hang in there with this, but when the sweet churchgoer was trying to convince the clueless airhead to keep her baby and pulled up pictures on her laptop of unborn babies to show her? I had to bail. Honestly, if this were even-handed, I wouldn't have minded so much...but no. Just a warning. If you're pro-life, you'll love it, though.
