Rounding up to three.

This one just wasn't for me.
I wasn't won over at all by the main character,or any of the others.
It held some humour that kept me reading,but overall it won't be one I remember in a few

Wayward by Dana Spiotta is about a woman who leaves her marriage and her home and her teenage daughter and that part was interesting but I found the sub-plots hard to connect to and the style problematic.

Middle-aged women are a group all too often overlooked by most elements of today's media. This excellent novel exploring the travails of fifty something, perimenopausal Sam after she walks out on her husband and teenage daughter and sets up home elsewhere at least partly redresses the balance.
Why has Sam moved out? What part did the election of Donald Trump play in her decision? Will she ever return to her husband? Can she trust her new friends? Who is behind the strange messages she keeps receiving?
This is a thoroughly readable and very well-written book.

This book was unlike anything I have read before, it was laugh out loud funny and emotive, in places it really moved me. I couldnt put it down I really enjoyed it.
