review 1: Although her idea of cool is extremely different than mine - and I agree with some of the other reviewers about talking about being fat a not too much - I definitely. had some empathy for the identity crisis she went through after leaving the working world and becoming a stay at home mom. Yeah, I finished this book in the minivan - and I felt like my last bit of cool crumpled away the day we bought; sure was practical & comfortable on this trip though. That about sums it up.
review 2: I came about this book through a goodreads giveaway. When I began reading it, I must admit that I was ready to find all faults with the plot line and the comedic interludes of the suburban mom Tracy and her coolness factor. I am not a mom and have not been to Jersey so I felt t... morehat I could not relate to this book at all. However, I found that I could not put it down. It took me a few days to read it cover to cover. I had to know what shenanigans Tracy was going to get into next after being pulled over while wearing her ducky bathrobe. While she embellished and over exaggerated in some scenarios, I found myself laughing at the things she would say and her farfetched reasoning in explaining her actions. Definitely a coming of age story for mothers. less
