This was a GREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTT book! I found it on the plane after one of my flites and figured I'd try it. It's the story of a woman who's settled in her life, career, and is finished raising her kids. One day her husband comes home to tell her he's leaving her. The next day she loses her job- and it continues from there. I liked it because it was so realistic. I totally imagined my mom threw the whole story, because she went through the same thing and had the same reactions. And she got her revenge in a not harsh way- she just grew into herself. Such a funny, sad tale that was a quick easy read- one I didn't want to end.
