The Pile of Stuff at the Bottom of the Stairs

01/31/2011

Title of the book: The pile of stuff at the bottom of the stairs
Author : Christina Hopkinson
Length :308
Genre : Fiction (but could easily be autobiographical to some of us)

This book isnt due to hit publication till March. i get alot of proof readers as i work in a bookshop...which is awesome. some not so good but this one was amazing

A funny acurate observation about marriage, motherhood, children and work. i am not married nor do i have children of my own. but i have been with my man for a long time and i have step children and totally related to the main character Mary. i laughed out loud literally, my fiance had to ask several times what was so funny. It was like someone was watching our relationship and wrote it on paper!

Mary is an underappreciated, under paid punchingbag for everyone else. Fed up with her husband she starts making a list of all the crappy things he does. for every bad thing he does he gets a point. for every good thing she takes away a point. in 6 months time if he has exceeded 100 points she will divorce him. i wont spoil the ending but if you see it READ IT!

Very easy read. i read alot (and sometimes have 2 or 3 books on the go at once) but this one i couldnt put down.
