Well … isn’t that part of it all . There is nothing wrong with ( and something inherently positive and uplifting) about the ordinary aspects of life.

Yes, but we read stories to enter worlds different from our own. Sometimes better, sometimes worse, but more exciting\interesting. If you go to an art museum you want to see painting or sculpture. Not paint drying on a wall or the debris left on the floor by the sculptor. From the review the characters sound shallow and boring. I can find that on reality TV. The book seems like an episode of The Real Housewives of fillintheblank. Or maybe the Kardashians.
