Query: Annoying

I've read "In Her Shoes" which I enjoyed, but this latest one became more annoying with each page.The character is nothing original. She's been done before: An educated thirtyish woman who feels she is trapped with her kids in the suburbs. Add to this a really obnoxious,loudmouthed friend and three toddlers (including a four year old who acts forty) and you have the makings of a so-so story that's been done many times before.I found Kate to be an extreme busybody and wouldn't blame her husband for leaving her. Her "humorous" side remarks were tiresome and I didn't really care for her or her immature pinings for a man who was never a boyfriend to begin with.I hope the author picks a more interesting character to develop in her next novel.
