This book was CRAZY in the best possible way. Lauren comes home from a night out with friends and her husband is coming down the ladder from the attic--but Lauren isn't married. Who is this guy? And why, when she sends him back up to the attic to find something, does a totally different guy come down the ladder--and her world 'resets' to her married life with this new husband?
The book's premise works because Lauren totally believes it is happening--she doesn't (completely) freak out at each new husband (and she can send them back pretty quickly if they don't meet her standards) and all the while her life continues, changing as husbands come up and down the ladder.
It's a book about love and marriage, about figuring out what we want, about what we will negotiate to have the life that we think is the life we are supposed to have, and the importance of friends who stay with you for the long haul.
I really liked it.
