I heard about this book from someone I took a grad class with over the summer, and she made it sound like it would be a very entertaining read, so I was excited when I finally got it from paperbackswap.com. Although it was well-written and funny at times, the author seemed to fluctuate between cursing out single life and cursing out married life (you are either Self-Pitying Spinster, SPS, or a Witless Married Dullard, WMD). It seems you can't be happy with either! Some of the stories she related from friends were like train wrecks, you couldn't turn away (or put the book down) but you couldn't believe that someone actually did those things either! I do have to say in one of the last chapters I had to laugh because the author makes mention about the most exciting thing to happen to someone recently married is an out of control sump pump, and well yeah that just happened last week to me... :-P So I had to laugh at that.
