Review # 1 was written on 2010-04-12 00:00:00 Dana Barrett I just found this at my house and realized I never added it here. This is chick lit with a bit more substance. After a politician is cleared of blame for his wife's suicide even though he had been abusing her for years a woman suggests that all women refuse to have sex with their partners until justice is served. Women actually listen to the main character and go along with the sex protest (based on the Lysistrata myth) and she becomes the target of many angry men. There were some funny things here but overall the book was a lot heavier than expected but in a good way.
