Query: It's supposed to be funny, but actually it's a sad story

The funnier the author tries to be on this one, the stupider and more pathetic the book becomes. All of the characters are totally unlikeable, shallow, arrogant, and stupid. I don't think that these particular personality traits are funny, and I don't see how Ms. Goldsmith ever got this implausible, sorry book published. First Wife's Club it isn't!
