Little Children
by Tom Perrotta
- Abandoned February 3, 2010 -
This book is being discussed in an upcoming book club I've been thinking about joining and I have heard some good reviews about it but I just could not bring myself to care about the characters of this story of suburbia, apparently unhappy marriages, and a blatant dissatisfaction with the life of stay at home parenting.
I can understand that these topics are a reality for millions and it's not that I cannot read a book that I can't relate to personally - I can and have. And frankly there were things I could relate to but I could not seem to care about any of the characters at all.
It was like watching a handful of sad people trapped in boxes they'd knowingly climbed into - and being forced to sit inside those boxes with them. The best part of this book was putting it down and being greeted by my own life, which is kind of the opposite of falling into a good book.
I feel like I'm trying to make excuses for not finishing this book, like I've done some horrible misdeed but at the end of the day I have to remind myself that I have better things to do with my time than read a book I'm not enjoying, whatever the reasons.

Fun fun fun!
CUTE!!!
Cute turtles…so fun.
So big now!
@ Meg : I know, I’m amazed looking at the difference in just one year!
What a difference a year makes, huh?
We “heart” the White Mountains- my oldest daughter wants to attend UNH for her love of NH growing up camping there every year.
@ Gina : We loved our trip there – we spent a lot of time saying, “This town is nice, let’s move in!” haha – Thanks for visiting
Looks like great fun!
I’m usually too slow with the camera. When I ask the kids to get back on whatever it is they’ll sit thre and frown at me.
So cute! I cannot believe how much children grow in just one year.
Love the pictures!
Such darlings! What a fun, fun, park.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. The people in my WW photo are looking up at the piñata in the tree.
How adorable! I love turtles and your little guy is such a cutie.
Giddee up turtle! Though they always say that the turtle wins the race every time.
