Publisher Description
The critically acclaimed novel about four women who learn how to carry on while leaning on each other from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of How Stella Got Her Groove Back and It's Not All Downhill From Here.
When the men in their lives prove less than reliable, Savannah, Bernadine, Gloria, and Robin find new strength through a rare and enlightening friendship as they struggle to regain stability and an identity they don’t have to share with anyone. Because for the first time in a long time, their dreams are finally OFF hold....
“Hilarious, irreverent...Reading Waiting to Exhale is like being in the company of a great friend...thought-provoking, thoroughly entertaining, and very, very comforting.”—The New York Times Book Review
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
McMillan's zesty novel tells the stories of four 30ish black women bound together by warm, supportive friendship and by their dwindling hopes of finding Mr. Right. Pocket paid a whopping million for Exhale , which was a 29-week PW bestseller in cloth.
Customer Reviews
Nostalgic feel✨
I enjoyed the pacing and the end was cute but i put down this book many times and every time i came back to it the names of the manyyyyy men had me lost but overall I ended up getting through it and enjoyed!
Good read
Good book just know that the book is about 4 women trying to find love in a world with men who won’t commit, cheat, and ask for divorces. No they aren’t desperate they are going through exactly what some modern women are going through today . Everybody wants to exhale hence the title. Give the book a chance and put yourself in each of these characters shoes that’s the best way to understand.
Best book ever, amazing characters
