Lucy's Last Straw by Debbie Viggiano

Well, I’m much younger than the characters or couples in this book but I can easily see and understand what’s happening.
While I liked the writing style and the description of the country cottage, the characters left a bad taste in my mouth actually.
Firstly, the heroine is so stubborn to accept that she’s going through a phase in any woman’s life and she is definitely in need of help. Then she’s only complaining about having to do all the housework but she’s still not saying much to her husband. As a mother I understand that you’ll do anything for your children anytime but that doesn’t mean to let them get over you like you don’t even count.
The husband is a topical man with eyes for other women as well especially when your wife doesn’t pay that much attention to you anymore.
The ending was predictable for me and honestly I’m still a bit confused as to what I felt about the whole story.
