Two Scoops, not Three

Two Scoops, Not Three is the story of 3 friends. Briony, Natalie and Lauren. Very different women that have been friends since school.
Briony has an office job and is looking for Mr Right
Lauren is a cruise ship singer looking for Mrs Right
Natalie is married to her childhood sweetheart and has children.
As a debut novel this was a nice easy read.
The book is constantly making references to movies and TV shows - don’t get me wrong I love a movie quote but it was constant.
The drink Cosmopolitan cocktails because of Sex and the City
“Profane or really offensive” from Pretty Woman
“It’s not that common, it does t happen to every guy and it is a big deal” from Friends
There are also countless other references to This Morning, MTV’s The Hills, Christina Aguilera, Gone with the Wind, Back to the Future........which for me got annoying.
The ending felt a bit strange too. My kindle told me I only had 15 minutes left in the book which surprised me as I felt like there were a lot of loose ends. The relationship of 2 of the main characters at the end of the book didn’t make sense to me either - when you read the book you will know what I mean.
Would all of this stop me reading another book by a Terri Boas? No it wouldn’t. I do however hope there is a sequel to this book and we get to find out more about Briony, Lauren and Natalie.

Thank you to the Author, Publisher and NetGalley for gifting me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a cute fun chick lit book! It is about three friends and how they face different challenges life throws at them. At times I had a feeling that there might some drama but it was nice to see how their friendship grew though the struggles.

Two Scoops, not Three is a nice read about the ups and downs of life and the friendships you have. The only thing is that in some places the story felt a little rushed in places.
It's a great read for by the pool this summer.

Two Scoops, Not Three is the story of 3 best friends: Briony, Natalie and Lauren. It's also a story about their awry, but entertaining romances. Overall, I enjoyed this story. It's funny, fast-paced and easy-to-read.

I really loved the displays of genuine, sisterhood and female affection throughout the book. The scene in the bathroom with Briony and Natalie was probably my favourite part. However, I did struggle connecting to the characters from the get-go. A lot of things happened throughout the book without the characters ever really exploring their feelings or considering their actions. I don't know why, but I think I would have enjoyed this book even more if it had been written from the perspective of just one of the characters.

Even so, I would recommend this book. It's easy-going and not too deep. A perfect summer read.

Great debut book. I really enjoyed “Two Scoops, Not Three”. The characters were very likeable but I think there were a few too many references to movie quotes which padded the story somewhat. On the whole, very well written and put together.

A quick easy read about friendship, love and lust. The characters were intriguing but a couple caused a headache for me, especially Natalie's husband. I really could not fathom his reaction at all.

We often forget the power and meaning of relationships and friendships that we have. This book tells the story of three long term friends in very different places in their lives. Natalie, a married woman with two young kids who feels alone after her youngest child starts school, and turns to a hot personal trainer. A hard working girl Briony coming out of a bad relationship and falls for another man whom wishes to play the field. Then there is Lauren whom works performing on a cruise ship and lives with her best friend and develops feelings for her. All three see that without the friendship and love that they have for one another how different and truly sad they would be.

Light Hearted, Easy Read, with an Element of Reality.. 💝 Great Debut Novel

Three friends, Lauren, Briony and Natalie. The book is told mainly from Natalie and Briony's perspective. The three ladies have been good friends for many years.
Natalie is married to Martin with two children and having an affair with her PT, much to her friends distaste. Initially feeling that the grass is greener, maybe that's not the case... Briony finds love in an unexpected place...

Two Scoops Not Three is a great debut novel, light hearted easy read with an element of reality. Look forward to reading more from this author 👍

Two Scoops, Not Three is the story of 3 friends. Briony, Natalie and Lauren.

Sometimes, finding the perfect combination involves sampling a few flavours . . .

Briony, Natalie and Lauren have been best friends since school. Now in their thirties, their lives couldn't be more different.

I loved the the story this book told! The bond between friends. The sister hood.
This was a fast book to read, funny, cute, enjoyable.
I enjoyed every second of it.

I genuinely think there’s a little bit of most women in this book. Totally relatable and a brilliant read. Adored it!

This is a book that reminds you of your friends and things you got upto. The laughs, the falling out and the drunken nights, except I can't sing!
A page turner definitely with a few twists
Easy read, easy to follow but that does not mean it's not a great book. It means I kept wanting to know what's was going to happen next

Pretty good book. This one really counts as a weekend read to me. You don’t have to keep a chart of who’s who because the story is easy to follow.
