Nine strangers arrive at a health resort to be renewed, to lose weight, to find themselves, to rest. The author does a great job in describing each character--their flaws and their strengths, their past mistakes and present difficulties, their hidden hopes. Moriarty seems to be a master at creating fun, real characters who are also dealing with hard, underlying issues. The strangers do pull together and face a tough situation, which cements their friendship and helps them to realize what they really do want in life.
The craziest of characters is the leader, of course. Fascinating, aggravating and scary!! I love that Moriarty can tell a good story, and still keep it on the lighter side. Enjoyable.
