I loved Marilyn's character and her crazy friends. I love the storyline about the interruptions in our lives. The best part is how she dealt with them. I felt that when the end came I was expecting more. There has GOT to be another book, part 2. There are too many situations that I felt like needed to be talked about and closed. E.g. the situation with Joy's death? I would like to know what happens with the kids, and the lawsuit, etc. Too many included scenarios..

It was a great soap opera. Nice to get away from reality television and have good wholesome drama. Great read couldn't put it down.
