Why oh why couldn't I have thought of something like this? Linda is hysterical in her suburgatory tales and news and blurbs. What's even funnier is that I often found myself thinking, "Oh yeah... that happened here, too." Then I'd remember that it probably actually DIDN'T happen here and that she had totally made it up. That's how biting and true-to-life this book is. You need to read it if you are a suburbanite or if you are all metro (metro?) because either way, you're going to laugh until your sides hurt. This was okay for me. I'm afraid I found myself skimming some of the chapters, already thinking ahead to what book I was going to read next. I can't say I relate to a lot of the topics, which is what I am sure affected my enjoyment. However, I can say that the writing has a bitingly funny point of view. I feel this would appeal to a lot of women who leave city life for a seemingly more sedate suburban life, but finding a whole new set of dramas instead. I don't have children, and i live in a small, rural Southern town. I am just coming from a different place, I guess.
