I just finished the BEST book

Picked up "The Playdate" at Costco over the weekend, it's a thriller about a playdate gone awry.  I bought it because there was a little blurb on the back by the author of "The Wrong Mother" which I also enjoyed very much.

Started reading it Sunday afternoon, and stayed up until midnight Monday night to finish it!  This book is FABULOUS.  Great characters, lots of surprising twists, and an excellent plot.  Brings up a lot of questions about who you trust with your kids, for sure!  I can't wait to talk about this book...

    nope! There's no violence at all, nothing gruesome, etc. It's a psychological thriller about 2 adult women, they are neighbors and best friends, and they both keep secrets from each other. It's really a fantastic book!

    Same here. PPD/PPA has given me some totally crazy irrational paranoid fears. They've subsided quite a bit since DS was a newborn but if my imagination gets going....

    I can't handle that shiz.

    I can barely even watch Law and Order anymore, anything to do with kids just makes me want to vomit!

    Interesting. I recently watched a Lifetime movie with the same title.

    Huh.  I'm a Lifetime Addict...I wonder if it was the same story?  But I don't want to spoil the book...?
