Claire St. John has recently been divorced from a quick-start marriage. So, like any other sensible 34 year old woman, she quits her job as a New York lawyer, returns home to her native Austin, Texas to live in her mother’s rental, and decides to become a writer. Not just any writer mind you but the author of the supreme back door pass to the woman’s bathroom. Unfortunately, the road to author-stardom isn’t all fun and games. Claire must deal with an annoying ex-boyfriend, several friends with their own romantic troubles, and the all too attractive Jake Armstrong who, if Claire isn’t careful, will throw her new life askew.
The Men’s Guide to the Women’s Bathroom by Jo Berrett is an exhilarating romp through life as we know it. We live through the emotional roller-coaster ride of getting divorced and learning to love again, all while Claire takes notes in Jamaican Me Crazy red on toilet paper about bathroom etiquette.
Barrett weaves a tremendously funny and equally enduring story that was simply a joy to read. With plenty of emotion, humor, and heart The Men’s Guide to the Women’s Bathroom will easily wiggle it’s way onto any keeper shelf.
