This had a couple good moments and lines (I like the part about how when you start over, you have to teach someone all the people and the stories, and it's frustrating when someone doesn't just know), but this was mostly a disappointment for me. Not as funny as Where'd You Go, Bernadette and not as deep as Beautiful Ruins for me. Also, this showed up on a beach read list and this is not my idea of a beach read (which has nothing to do with my rating, just, if you are also reading it hoping for a beach read, you may be disappointed).

this book just feels like high fidelity with less-developed characters and slightly higher stakes (marriage, a child (who actually doesn't figure into the story very much at all))

I flew this book as it was a super fun read - unexpected as the central theme is an infidelity. The tragic moments were funny and the characters so very relatable. This is a great vacation book.
