bamandia 's review for:

Little Children by Tom Perrotta
5.0

this book was awesome. the way the story interweaves the main characters lives through the lives of their children works really well.

the main characters sarah and todd are quite likeable despite the fact that they are having an affair. the story focuses mostly on the boredom of sarah and her suburban life...todd's failure to ever make good in his wife's eyes...and their exciting escape from their own reality.

the relationship between all the characters lead back to the fact that none of them are actually happy in their lives....and that they all want to get out.

the book is written extremely well.


again. don't watch the movie...it's ok, but nowhere close to the original story. read the book instead.
