Today Will Be Different by Maria Semple.

Eleanor makes a list of small ways to improve her life, starting now!  Not surprisingly, it all goes awry.

I had a little trouble following all the flashbacks and asides.  I don't remember having that trouble with Bernadette, but maybe I did.

15th Affair by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro.

Meh.  I don't know why I keep reading these, or trying to.  There are so many books out there.

Latest installment of the Women's Murder Club series.  Another mash-up of stories with hardly a resolution at the end.  Did they ever confirm who killed everyone at the Four Seasons?  If they did, I can't remember it, which doesn't bode well for the story.  Also, surprise* revelations about Lindsey's husband, Joe.   The real mystery is where they found this incredible babysitter who is available 24/7 and also cooks and cleans for them.  HAHAHAHA

2.5 stars.
