""Abbi Waxman is both irreverent and thoughtful."--#1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin And now the author of The Garden of Small Beginnings returns with a hilarious and poignant new novel about four families, their neighborhood carpool, and the affair that changes everything. At any given moment in other people's houses, you can find...repressed hopes and dreams...moments of unexpected joy...someone making love on the floor to a man who is most definitely not her husband... *record scratch* As the longtime local carpool mom, Frances Bloom is sometimes an unwilling witness to her neighbors' private lives. She knows her cousin is hiding her desire for another baby from her spouse, Bill Horton's wife is mysteriously missing, and now this... After the shock of seeing Anne Porter in all her extramarital glory, Frances vows to stay in her own lane. But that's a notion easier said than done when Anne's husband throws her out a couple of days later. The repercussions of the affair reverberate through the four carpool families--and Frances finds herself navigating a moral minefield that could make or break a marriage"-- Provided by publisher.

Good summer read submitted by fairytale on July 6, 2019, 8:33pm This novel was a light read about marriages in an LA neighborhood and the everyday challenges the characters encounter in their relationships. Good summer read; perfect for the beach!

Usually like this author's work, this one didn't do it for me. submitted by smgop on July 13, 2021, 12:20pm Too many expletives & smut. I liked her other books much better.
