Mrs. Fletcher : a novel por Tom Perrotta

Interesting, but somehow ALL the characters were slightly annoying to me. Can't put my finger on it.

Mrs. Fletcher: A Novel por Tom Perrotta

Fun read with well defined characters. If I had the time I would have ripped through this book in two sessions. Excellent story with an insightful narrative from several character perspectives.

I'd love to hear feedback from the 40 , single women out there on what they thought.

The Leftovers por Tom Perrotta

Really good book, so dark and humorous at the same time. While this seems so unrealistic if you haven't read it, afterwards it definitely feels like it could/did happen. Really good read! The TV series is good, too and different enough that you can read the book even if you watched the tv show and still be surprised and vice versa.

Tracy Flick Can't Win: A Novel por Tom Perrotta

Tracy Flick Can't Win is a major disappointment from one of my favorite writers-Tom Perrotta. A scattered plot filled with surface characters is only slightly redeemed by the ending.
