I tore through this book in less than 6 hours. Hysterical, particularly for those of us who live (or have lived) in Seattle. The witty observations and commentary about Seattle's culture, weather, population, etc had me laughing out loud! I borrowed it from the library, but will be purchasing my own copy immediately!

I waffled between 3 and 4 stars. What pushed it over the edge was that I was willing to stay up until 4 am reading and finished it pretty quickly after starting. I only identified with little slivers of the characters. But it was a fun ride. The characters are quirky and spoiled. The plot fun and engaging. It's not a particularly funny book, I didn't laugh out loud. But I smirked plenty of times. Happy reading!

Quirky, light, and funny. About a family in Seattle, the Mom is a bit crazy, the Dad a high level Microsoft exec, and a smart tween daughter. They navigate and overcome ridiculous behavior of some private school Moms, mental breakdowns, and a trip to Antarctica.
