loved the commentary, humour and character development in this book. I absolutely loved the uniqueness, the fact that it’s centred around wealth and family bc I love to read about family dynamics. The Stocktons are one of the richest families in Brooklyn Heights but the story remains grounded with life lessons and takeaways.

I highly recommend this one to those who love character driven plots, and rich vibes with some romance on the side.

This was a 4 star read for me.This took me a while to get around to reading as life got in the way. I really enjoy the fast paced quality of this book and the interesting looks into each of the main characters lives. I was frustrated with reading on my Kindle as it seemed to not save my place but that is a technology issue vs a readability issue. I would definatly recommend this to my friends.

It took me awhile to finish this book but I’m glad I did. The family dynamics were of a rich family who are spoiled and don’t know how to change. You see them grow but not until closer to the end. Sasha comes from a middle class family but even she was spoiled and not always nice. It takes a tragedy to change them. What I found interesting is that at the beginning you meet Curtis and he is there at the end. He is a catalyst in this story. I received a free book and the views and opinions are my own.

This was an enjoyable book. I did, however, find the plot was a little slow. I did enjoy some of the family drama.. The humour in the book was good and kept it light when it needed to be.

While there was nothing intrinsically "wrong" with the novel, I found it didn't catch my interest. There was little new to a story of monied people facing their issues and guilt and one unmonied person who married into the family and didn't feel she fit. It didn't engage me, the characters seemed more self-absorbed than self-aware, the storyline dragged, even as it switched between the characters. Not a novel I'd recommend.

While I normally enjoy slice-of-life stories it truly felt like not much happened in Pineapple Street. The three women the story focuses on did have some character development, but it didn't feel very satisfying I was left wanting for more.

I was immediately sucked in to this story of a wealthy New York family. The idea of old money, outsiders marrying into the family and all of the drama that happens made for an amazing story that I could not put down. I loved how each chapter was told from a different sisters point of view. I enjoyed this more than I expected.

Enjoyable family drama as each sibling realizes what truly matters in life. Well written, interesting characters. I'd read a book from this author again

I always love a family drama story and this was an interesting one. The characters were interesting with more than a few flaws. I loved the setting and overall enjoyed this book. Looking forward to seeing what this author does next.

Well written characters and well written book. How the other half (probably) lives. Sort of a previously used plotline but with some good twists.

Family. Brooklyn Heights. Marrying outside your class. A street named Pineapple. Private club. Pregnancy. Trust fund. Affair with a married man.

This is a story about wealthy people and their issues.

This is also a. recommendation from Indigo Books CEO. Was not my cup of tea.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me a complimentary e-arc in exchange for my honest review.

Laugh-out-loud funny. I was not expecting to love this book as much as I did, but it was fantastic. Can't wait to see what Jenny Jackson does next.

When I was reading the book, I felt more like reading a non-fiction for some reason. I learned about the part of the world that I didn’t know. I believe one’s life experiences somehow limits one’s understanding of the world, one’s imagination, and empathy. The book definitely touches several social issues and the story itself sounds more realistic to me compared to the more dramatic ones that I read.

It seems that fictional family drama novels are my favourite at the moment and this one did not disappoint. Thank you to Penguin Random House Canada and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy.

Laugh out loud funny! Well written first by this author but would definitely read another!! ❤️❤️ must admit the title drew me in at first but I stayed for the laughs. :-)

This book was really entertaining and easy to read! I particularly enjoyed the three points of view (2 Stockton sisters and the sister-in-law) because they gave such different perspectives into each other's lives (the differences between social classes, opinions, inheritances, and age cohorts). While at times it seemed that the story wasn't really moving forward, the ending tied up nicely and left me satisfied. It's a quick read that gives you a view into the New York elite.

I was fooled by the beautiful cover of this book and cannot lie I skipped a couple chapters just to read the ending and realized I never missed a thing. Although the characters were well written I had a hard time caring about them or getting invested in their lives. The fact that were so rich and entitled did not sit well. Sasha was the only character I truly enjoyed and felt for her having to deal with the Stockton family and their elitist and trivial problems. Thank you to NetGalley and Jenny Jackson for the opportunity to read this novel and get a peek into the lives of the rich and spoiled.

this was just alright - i get the moral of "not all the money in the world can buy you happiness" or money cannot take all your troubles away. Still, i felt that this was a bit shallow because it didn't do much more than that. i don't think this book did anything new with the concept, and didn't really sell me on the characters who were just different iterations of the same woman. i didn't hate it, as i think it at least deserves 3 stars but i definitely do not see it as some revelatory insight into the 'truly hard lives' of the rich and luxurious

This was a good book. But I really had to work to keep myself engaged. The MC's didn't pull me in and I wasn't invested in their stories. The story was a little slower then I would like but the writing was beautiful. Wasn't a win for me but don't let me sway you away from the novel.

There is a lot of buzz around this book and I can definitely see the appeal. However, I couldn't get into it. Characters and plot points failed to engage me as a reader. An elevated writing style was a highlight but I can't say I'll think of this book again.
