The Seven Year Bitch by Jennifer BelleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
As always, I thoroughly enjoyed another book by Jennifer Belle. In this book she looks at life from the perspective of a New York woman who has lost her job and is now 'supposed' to be staying home with her son and husband. It goes through her journey of looking for a nanny and then becoming friends and bonding with the nanny by trying to solve her (the nanny's) infertility problems. The best part is when Isolde (the main character) takes on the job of judging mail in contests. She gets to read about various peoples thoughts, lives and opinions in 100 words or less. I would like to say that if wisely put, almost anything can be described in 100 words or less. After doing the contests for quite some time Isolde finds herself tired of her marriage to her whiny husband, who is really all about himself. Her journey of finding herself is one that probably many unhappy women go on and have to muddle through. In the end, Isolde finds true happiness in the simplest of things and begins to enjoy her family, and new son, after being a 7 year bitch!
