About this product

Product Information

New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Weiner's unforgettable story of adjusting to suburbia--and all the surprises hidden behind its doors. For Kate Klein, a semi-accidental mother of three, suburbia has been full of unpleasant surprises. Her once-loving husband is hardly ever home. The supermommies on the playground routinely snub her. Her days are spent carpooling and enduring endless games of Candy Land, and at night, most of her orgasms are of the do-it-yourself variety. When a fellow mother is murdered, Kate finds that the unsolved mystery is the most exciting thing to happen in Upchurch, Connecticut, since her neighbors broke ground for a guesthouse and cracked their septic tank. Even though the local police chief warns her that crime-fighting's a job best left to the professionals, Kate launches an unofficial investigation -- from 8:45 to 11:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, when her kids are in nursery school. As Kate is drawn deeper into the murdered woman's past, she begins to uncover the secrets and lies behind Upchurch's picket-fence facade -- and considers the choices and compromises all modern women make as they navigate between marriage and independence, small towns and big cities, being a mother and having a life of one's own.

Did not receive item. Immediate refund from seller and said I could keep the item if it arrived. It never arrived. However, seller indicated item was shipped but there was never a tracking number or method of tracking associated with item. Only seller I have dealt with that does not provide tracking information. Do not know if item was ever shipped. Frustrating.

  • More interested in the past than present

    I found myself much more interested in Kate Klein's past life; her life out of college, living with Janie, living in the same building as Evan, than her current life as a mom and would-be detective. I would get embroiled in the chapters of the past then disappointed to find myself brought to the present again, and I could barely remember what was even happening. It was enjoyable, but I did find the ending to be rushed and contrived. I felt like I wasted a lot of time getting to know characters who had nothing to do with anything. Jennifer Weiner is an outstanding writer, but this one fell a bit flat for me. I had so many questions at the end. I think the best character (in the present) was the wee lassie, Sophie!

  • Only Okay

    I had high expectations of this book and they went flat. I bought it b/c it was it had rave reviews at RochesterMommies.com- a group I participate in w/ other mommies. I felt it had a slow start and was only okay. It was well written and the end was much better than the take off- it just didn't live up to my expectations and I doubt I will re read this one. You may be left wondering if the author will have a part two.... but that would be a separate story & doesn't take away from the mystery of this title.

  • Weiner's Masterpiece

    Of all of Jennifer Weiner's books, this was by far my favorite. Ms. Weiner found a way to give you a mystery but yet inject humor in it to keep it light and moving. You will be touched at the persistence of this young mother who becomes involved in the investigation of a friend's murder. She has become bored being a stay at home mom in a town most analogous to "Stepford." In order to fight becoming a "Stepford Wife," she seeks answers to questions that she feels are not even being asked in an effort to find the culprit who murdered her friend. If you can only read one of Jennifer Weiner's books, this would be my pick.

  • Excellent book!

    I read this in 2 days because I couldn't put it down. Jennifer Weiner's writing is so witty and real in her other books so combining that with a mystery really works. It will keep you guessing until the end who murdered the "perfect" mommy in the upscale community of SUV driving mom's who only feed their children organic food. Very good book.
