Title: sentimental, but fairly on target
Product review: Thursdays at Eight was my first Debbie Macomber book. The four main characters were somewhat stereotypical, but life in general is full of stereotypes. Of course, things pretty well work out for everyone in the end, and a MULTITUDE of subjects is covered in the process such as spousal abuse, cheating husbands, serious illness, death, widowhood, empty nest syndrome, being dumped, angry children, late pregnancy, big dreams, politically incorrect men, and true friendships. Unfortunately, there is a bit of an implication that everyone in all their various circumstances finds true happiness by finding true love eventually, or if true love hasn't happened yet, then it is at least on the visible horizon! But hey, that's what makes it a romance. Actually, one of the book's best points is that Macomber starts each chapter with a quote; some inspiring, some funny, and some relevant.
