Fleishman is in Trouble by Taffy Brodesser-Akner

Heard a lot about this book and was very excited to read it. I have to say that I started out lukewarm about it. I kept at it, however, and am SO glad that I did.  The final part of the book really nailed it all and put the whole thing in perspective.
This is a book about the challenges of marriage, the challenges of being female in a male world and the challenges of being human and a product of our upbringing.
The book was funny but also very poignant and touching, especially the final part (the shortest part, but the most challenging to read.  Each sentence held such insight and meaning. I want to meet and talk to Taffy. She is brilliant!
