2.0

 As I was reading this book, I remembered that I didn't like the first book in the series, particularly because the characters were all whiny pains. Turns out that when people like that have a kid, their kid is also a rude. whiny, pain in the butt. I cannot imagine things ending well for me if I ever acted like Joy - but I was also not set up for (a lack of) success like her. Cannie continued to be flaky and just waited for someone she could blame for her problems/solve her problems for her.


Anyways, while I generally like Weiner as an author, I'm not sorry to see the back of Cannie and her host of problems.
