review 1: Oh, Chic Lit, why do I avoid you? Why do I think you'll leave me wanting more? Because sometimes, you are just what the doctor ordered.This was delightful. A woman's world comes crashing down around her, and she handles it with grace, strength and good humor. Is that a spoiler? Sorry. But it's not, because it's the small things in this novel that make it worth reading - a turn of phrase, a moment of discovery, a snarky come-back - really, just delightful.
review 2: Funny, great character, loved the writing style, especially fun if you live in Southern California and/or around Pasadena. This is a story about a mom who goes back to work after her philandering husband dies. I had a hard time with the new love interest storyline as he seemed largely self-abso
... morerbed and intellectually interesting but emotionally distant. It seemed like she primarily wanted that relationship in order to make her girlfriends jealous and to gain new status in the community. less
