I absolutely loved Wendy Wax's trilogy of books about the women renovating houses-10 Beach Road, Ocean Beach and The House at Mermaid Point. This book was more like her book The Accidental Best Seller. I like books about friendships between women/mothers/daughters. This book was about a woman who came home to live with her sister and her family after an accident at her job caused her to be a laughing stock of the news community. She also finds she is pregnant by her journalist boyfriend. She goes from her high pressure ,fast track life to living in suburbia. There were also a lot of friendships going on with the women in the dance studio-each one with their own story to tell.Her tales of her pregnancy and the every day humor of helicopter parents,and the caring nature she develops are funny and heartwarming.
