heartburn

I just finished reading “The Nanny Diaries.” Ugh…. Just ugh. Don’t get me wrong, I was completely engrossed in the story, but it left a sour taste in my mouth. I just wanted to reach in and shake the nanny. WTF are you doing? Get out! I know, that wouldn’t make a very exciting tale if she came to her senses and bailed on the horrible family midway through the book, but I do think that this book was written specifically to give the reader stomach pains. I kept going, kept hoping for some sort of resolution or divine justice, but nothing. Just more heartburn.

I’m tense. In fact, I’m wound up and not in a good way. I took a shower after reading the book. I just felt dirty or something.

This is a great book for a plane ride, but if you’re going to read about a sadomasochistic boss, just read “The Devil Wears Prada.” At least the ending is decent.

Oh yeah, and this book makes me never, ever want to have kids. I’m sure my mind will change eventually, but just…………ugh. *shudder*
