Review: Been There, Married That

Been There, Married That Been There, Married That by Gigi Levangie Grazer
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

DNF at 25%.

Agnes Murphy Nash is the perfect Hollywood wife, until her husband decides he's bored and wants a divorce - and he lets her know by locking out of their McMansion while she is out at a party, because he doesn't like conflict.

This was a frenetic disjointed stream of consciousness. Agnes wasn't really a sympathetic character and I really didn't understand what was happening as she careened from celebrity hairdresser to the stars to an interview with a gossip columnist to a gals night out without pause or any indication that the date and place had changed.

Even worse, I just didn't find this funny, maybe you have to be in Hollywood to get the in-jokes and understand the allusions. Anyway, I tried twice over six weeks and couldn't make it past a quarter of the way through the book.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
