I had such a hard time with this book. I'm a mother. I have two daughters, 5 years apart. Of course there were times I wish my husband was more involved with their every day life, but I was also a stay at home mom until my youngest was 5, so I really do feel like it was my job to handle most of the every day stuff. I don't know what it's like to work a high stress job and raise a child, but this woman.....she whined CONSTANTLY. This book was 98% whining and 2% mystery. The mystery was what is the mystery, but whatever. Even after the resolution of the book SHE IS STILL WHINING. She didn't want to stand up for herself with anyone, “friends”, her boss, her coworkers, her husband, her child....and then she would explode and scream-whine to her husband. It was just frustrating.
