This book made me feel excited about growing older! Now, that might
sound odd, but bear with me. Untangling the Webs is the story of
relationships and real life. We follow the journeys of women who have
experienced love and heartbreak, who have battled through illness, raised
children, nurtured careers, and kept on going when life got tough. This book
picks up the story of a retired woman mourning for a missing lover, a woman in
her early forties who finds love when she has given up hope, of women who have
been “the other woman” in other people’s marriages. I liked the fact that all
the characters had flaws and strengths in equal measure, making them likeable
and believable. The webs mentioned in the title could well represent the physical
journeys taken by these women and men, as well as the entanglements of their
lives. They all meet up somewhere along the line, and I enjoyed reading the
story as it wove together, and bits of the puzzle clicked into place. Oh, and
there was some good sex in there as well, if you like it a little bit racy!
