It seemed exciting at first, but after two and a half years in New York, Tracey has to admit her life…well, sucks. Sure, she makes a decent living as a copywriter, but Blaire Barnett Advertising is a cutthroat world that basically swallows her life. If she does manage to get home before nine, she''s usually greeted by husband Jack''s best bud, an almost-permanent fixture in their tiny, unaffordable apartment. Add the circus freaks stomping around upstairs, and Tracey decides it''s time to move. After quitting her job, she and Jack take the plunge into the nearby suburbs of Westchester and quickly discover they''re in way over their heads. Their fixer-upper is unfixable, the stay-at-home yoga moms are a bore and Tracey yearns for her old friends—she even misses work! So which life does she really want? Other than Jack''s wife, who is she? If Tracey merely has to find her own Slightly Suburban niche, it had better be just around the corner, because there''re no subways here!
