Goodnight Nobody by Jennifer Weiner
My Review:
Kate Klein, a former newswriter and city girl finds herself living in an upscale Conneticut suburban with three children and where she never quite feels like she fits in. Then one day Kitty Cavanaugh, a member of the "perfect mothers" clan, invites Kate for lunch. But when she arrives, she discovers Kitty's murdered body on the kitchen floor and the phone number of Evan McKenna, her long lost love on Kitty's counter.
Her newswriter instincts kick in and before she knows it, she's enlisted her best friend Janie Segal and relunctantly Evan, to help her ask questions and try to find out who killed Kitty and why. In the process she learns a few "not so perfect" things about her neighbors.
Jennifer Weiner has managed to write a lighthearted and at times, humorous murder mystery. She has the different angles and perspectives just right so that it's nearly impossible to guess the outcome!
