I picked this up when someone left it in the break room at my office. It's truly the worst book I've ever (tried to) read. I rarely don't finish a book, but this one was so absurd and cliched I couldn't force myself through it. The dialogue was dreadful, the main character was annoying, and the plot was ridiculous (I ended up skimming through to see how it ended out of morbid curiosity). Like the main character, I'm a working mother -- I was hoping this book would be amusing and relatable. Instead I think it just reinforces tired, old negative stereotypes about life for women in the workplace. I have an old book from the early thirties called Weekend Marriage that tells the story a young wife and the disasterous consequences that befell her when she dared to keep her career after wedding. For me, I Don't Know How She Did It was basically like Weekend Marriage set in the mordern world. So in a word: awful.
