Despite our misgivings, our bookclub decided to read this book at the suggestion of one of our members. The lesson here: Never second guess yourself.
Written in poem verse (annoying), it's tells the story of a 40-something wife and mother and the angst of aging/marriage/motherhood. It's supposed to be clever, but I didn't find it particularly humorous.
As I was reading, I kept glancing longingly at my overstuffed bookshelf of to-be-read books and wondering why I was wasting my time on this one. Not willing to second guess myself a second time, I finally gave up on it in lieu of something I'd really been looking forward to reading.
I think I'll go to the bookclub meeting just to see what everyone else thought of it. (And because somebody's supposed to be bringing cheesecake.)
