review 1: This book is a boorish, and the characters were lame. It was a most difficult book to read. The never ending spewing of introspective conversation with one's self was atrocious.**SPOILERS**Nathan was a pathetic immature pansy who traded his marriage for one night of infidelity so he could feel like he did before marriage, children and adult responsibility. Sarah was unbeleivably whinny and tried to regain her pre-children persona by starting a sexual relationship with a 30 something loser that had never had a long term relationship. The lack of communication in their marriage was pathetic.
review 2: I chose to read this book because I really enjoyed "The Myth of You and Me" by the same author. Although I'm not a chick lit type of reader I enjoyed "The Myth of ... moreYou and Me" because I related to a tale of lost friendship. It was more difficult for me to get into this story of a marriage broken by infidelity. Leah Stewart is a fine writer who does an excellent job of exploring the psyches of her characters. In this book, the husband and wife are both writers (the wife writes poetry, the husband is a published novelist). They were both a bit too artsy fartsy for me to find common ground with. I did enjoy some of the revelations about living as a family with young children. I just found the characters and their friends a bit too young and hip for me to feel a strong connection with them. I'm sure this is a flaw in the reader and not the author.Confession Time: I skipped the poetry the character Sarah wrote (poetry really isn't my thing) and the story that Nathan wrote about Sarah (tried reading it but just wasn't feeling it). less
