Title: Laugh out loud funny
Review: When I first started reading this book, I didn't think I was going to like it, but the more I read, the more hooked I became. Elinor Lipman is a marvelous writer--skillful, clever, and witty. Moreover, she writes with sophistication and honesty. Her characters, no matter how odd, always seem real. They are three-dimensional, complex, and interesting. Alice is one of her best characters yet. Even when you wanted to shake her, you understood exactly why she was acting the way she was acting. I won't synopsize the story; others have already done that. What I will say is this -- buy this book. You won't be sorry. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
