Too slow of a buildup, too many side stories

I only stuck with this one because I plan to see the movie version. It has some of my favorite actresses. I don't enjoy the pace of this book. It's too low to be marketed as a mystery or a thriller. And there are so many side plots and added characters that I got confused far more than I usually do with books. As an American, I also was confused by a lot of the slang. Since I wasn't reading this on a Kindle, I couldn't just hold down a word and find the definition.

I liked the character development of each widow. The author set out a very clear personality for each. I love that Dolly took the lead, just as her husband had done when he led his crew.

There are also a lot of laughs in this book, like when one of the widows by sexy, tailored overalls to pull off a heist.

This book isn't bad, but it was a struggle to get through.
