Bunco
Bunco: A Comedy about the Drama of Friendship | Robin Delnoce
2 posts | 2 read
We all have "those" friends. Maybe you've known them since childhood, or met in college, or while waiting for a child's practice to end. Maybe you found yourself living on the same street. There's no single path to friendship. Relationships don't follow a script and neither do the lives of smart, funny, complicated suburban women. Jill, Anne, Mary, and Rachel met years ago through a neighborhood group that regularly got together to play a dice game called bunco. Although players have come and gone, they continue to use bunco as an excuse to abandon their day-to-day responsibilities and enjoy food, drinks, and the company of their best friends. When new neighbors move in under the cover of night, the foursome sees an opportunity to expand their bunco circle. But within hours, suspicions run rampant as the odd behaviors of the newest residents are interpreted differently. Are they quirky, or kinky? Diabolical, or misunderstood? Time after time, as the truth sheds light on some secrets, more emerge. Each woman finds herself shocked by the friends she thought she knew.Through the friendly banter, intimate confessions, and tongue-twisting insults, you may see yourself or your friends in these characters. Wipe away tears of laughter and loss as you join the four metaphorical rounds of bunco, and feel part of the conversation. Whether engaging in playful exploits, providing unconditional support, making uncomfortable sacrifices, or winding up in handcuffs again, these ladies are those rarest of friends who become true family. Of course, families don't follow a script either, unless it is a plot-twisting, slightly off-color comedy about the drama of friendship. And bunco, sort of.

Enjoyed so much about this book and learned a few things about Bunco, a game that requires a circle of friends and a roll of the dice. The format of the book was fresh and different, the fun, witty, and quirky banter between friends is engaging and entertaining. It's a nice departure from predictable, formulaic genres- perfect for anyone looking for a change of pace from their usual reads.
