Lucy and Owen, ambitious, thoroughly-therapized New Yorkers, have taken the plunge, trading in their crazy life in a cramped apartment for Beekman, a bucolic Hudson Valley exurb. They've got a 200-year-old house, an autistic son obsessed with the Titanic, and 17 chickens, at last count. It's the kind of paradise where stay-at-home moms team up to cook the school's "hot lunch", dads grill grass-fed burgers, and, as Lucy observes, "chopping kale has become a certain kind of American housewife's version of chopping wood".

Nina Dean is not especially bothered that she's single. She owns her own apartment, she's about to publish her second book, she has a great relationship with her ex-boyfriend, and enough friends to keep her social calendar full and her hangovers plentiful. And when she downloads a dating app, she does the seemingly impossible: She meets a great guy on her first date. Max is handsome and built like a lumberjack; he has floppy blond hair and a stable job. But more surprising than anything else, Nina and Max have chemistry.

The summer that Nixon resigns, six teenagers at a summer camp for the arts become inseparable. Decades later the bond remains powerful, but so much else has changed. In The Interestings, Wolitzer follows these characters from the height of youth through middle age, as their talents, fortunes, and degrees of satisfaction diverge. The kind of creativity that is rewarded at age 15 is not always enough to propel someone through life at age 30; not everyone can sustain, in adulthood, what seemed so special in adolescence.

Resumen del Editor
Now that her live-in boyfriend Tom has abruptly left her for his old girlfriend (he went out one night to buy a jar of mustard and didn't come back), and given that Gil-the-homosexual, her previous boyfriend, wasn't really that interested in her anyway, Alison is finally free to find her Big Love.
Embracing her freedom, she buys hiking boots and lacy underwear. She has an eye-opening fling with her new boss, and receives an unexpected proposal from an old friend. She samples love's many varieties, all the while talking obsessively with her girlfriends. She struggles with her neuroses. She loses her job. Then Tom returns, with the mustard.
Hilarious and heartbreaking, witty and chatty, The Big Love combines the emotional incisiveness of Jane Austen with the up-to-the-minute frankness of Sex in the City. It also proves that being dumped isn't so bad after all.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"[A] surprising, touching, and hilariously deadpan debut novel." (Publishers Weekly)

Jaime Primak Sullivan, a Jersey-bred, tough-as-nails PR maven - and unlikely transplant in an upscale suburb of Birmingham, Alabama - has spent her entire life crossing the line: whether she's pushing the boundaries of what proper Southern ladies consider to be "polite behavior" or literally traversing the Mason-Dixon line in the name of love. She isn't afraid to say what everyone is thinking when it comes to love, sex, friendship, and many other topics that are all too often sugar-coated in polite Southern company.

Dead is dead. Missing is gone. When Felix Brewer meets nineteen-year-old Bernadette "Bambi" Gottschalk at a Valentine's Day dance in 1959, he charms her with wild promises, some of which he actually keeps. Thanks to his lucrative - if not all legal - businesses, she and their three little girls live in luxury. But on the Fourth of July in 1976, Bambi's comfortable world implodes when Felix, facing prison, vanishes. Though Bambi has no idea where her husband - or his money - might be, she suspects one woman does: his devoted young mistress, Julie.

Jaime Primak Sullivan, a Jersey-bred, tough-as-nails PR maven - and unlikely transplant in an upscale suburb of Birmingham, Alabama - has spent her entire life crossing the line: whether she's pushing the boundaries of what proper Southern ladies consider to be "polite behavior" or literally traversing the Mason-Dixon line in the name of love. She isn't afraid to say what everyone is thinking when it comes to love, sex, friendship, and many other topics that are all too often sugar-coated in polite Southern company.

"You'll change your mind." That's what everyone says to Jen Kirkman - and countless women like her - when she confesses she doesn't plan to have children. But you know what? It's hard enough to be an adult. You have to dress yourself and pay bills and remember to buy birthday gifts. You have to drive and get annual physicals and tip for good service. Some adults take on the added burden of caring for a tiny human being with no language skills or bladder control.

It's a report tempered by hard times. In "Matricide", Daum unflinchingly describes a parent's death and the uncomfortable emotions it provokes; and in "Diary of a Coma" she relates her own journey to the twilight of the mind. But Daum also operates in a comic register. With perfect precision, she reveals the absurdities of the marriage-industrial complex, of the New Age dating market, and of the peculiar habits of the young and digital.

complete dribble
This book was utterly the most boring dribble I have listened to yet. It is a story told using a first person narration, and it reminds me of the awful times when you get stuck in a conversation with someone who talks non stop about their boring life -- and who just doesn't know when to shut up. Alison's life story is nothing special, its a simple tale of a women with issues trying to go through the dating life. There are no grand adventures, no brilliant insights, no quirky but fun charactors -- just dribble that goes on, and on, and on.

Bad, bad, bad
This is just a bad book. It sounds interesting in the description but it's not interesting at all. I would have left the main character long before her boyfriend tom did. Don't waste you time on this book unless you want something short and boring to listen to.

Super Boring!
This book was extremely dull. I find with most audio books, it takes a few minutes to get into it.. adapt to the narrator's voice etc but it didn't matter how long I listed to this book, I was bored to tears! After about an hour and half I started skipping forward in hopes that something exciting would happen. Finally I went to the last half hour of the book and didn't miss a thing. I love listening to audio books and this is the only one that I didn't listen to from start to finish. The storytelling is dull at most. The main character usually rants about useless subjects for 10 or so minutes, none of which seems to have any relevance to the story. There isn't any character development to make you like or relate to Alison and the author has WAY too many "she said" on one line after another when there was dialogue... it's annoying! I think I'll read the reviews of books more carefully before downloading another by this author or narrator.. I didn't like either.
