My Thoughts:
Four Respectable Ladies Seek the Meaning of Wife is the sequel to Barbara Toner’s novel, Four Respectable Ladies Seek Part Time Husband.
In the intervening decade, Pearl McLeary has become a married mother of four, Adelaide Nightingale has been widowed, Maggie O’Connell is unhappily married, and not one of them is happy about the return of Louisa Worthington to Prospect.
Perhaps if I had read Four Respectable Ladies Seek Part Time Husband previously, I would have been more invested in the characters, and hence the story. But unfortunately I have to admit I mostly found this quite hard going, though I did read to the end as I wanted to know how the four women resolved their issues.
I expect that those readers who enjoyed Four Respectable Ladies Seek Part Time Husband, will also enjoy this.

It’s too bad this disappointed, I hadn’t heard of either of these. Thanks for your honest thoughts.

Interesting titles, but I take your point about needing to read the previous book. Sometimes you really do have to.
