review 1: This book is about a typical upper middle class family living in New Jersey. The father’s job is outsourced to the Philippians right when a hurricane is about to hit Florida where his in-laws live. They are Reform Jews while the dad and his family go to a Unitarian Church. Nina the wife owns her own yoga studio and when a litigious student is injured she worries about how to pay for it. This book takes a humorous look at middle class America today.
review 2: With Presidents now caught with their pants down, sports heroes just looking for money, and the politics of the workplace, all I had was my visits to my yoga studio for solace. I kept a safe distance from my yoga teachers wanting to believe there are some sane people in this world.So, I picked up th... moreis book to give some depth to my 2d yogi heroes. I shouldn't have.The characters were unlikeable, especially the yoga teacher. The characters just kept shooting themselves in the foot and stuck in their own little world. I had to finish to see where this accident would go and how they would tie all this together at the end. Perhaps, it if were Jewish and more suburban I would enjoy this more. But for now, this book best serves as contrast and appreciation for the next book which I will surely enjoy more than this. less
