This was such a fun read. I'll admit I didn't want Carrie and David to end up together, but man I also didn't want David to take Janet back, so I would have preferred the latter if it could have avoided the former. Maybe I'm immature. But l never said I wasn't. And Janet is such a bitch-like name anyways.

And then there's Ken. Oh I despised the fucker, what a slimeball. Corny-ass cliché of a midlife crisis. The nerve, the audacity, the self-dick-suckingness. I wish the story was longer just so miss Taylor could go on about how miserable his little life absolutely turned out to be.

Lastly, I kind of loved the fact that Maggie is David's baby? I thought it could happen since they'd already implied Mr. Dr. Man was infertile, and I squealed when Carrie said “right before you gave me my baby”. Poetic justice. My sister looked at me weird.

I want to imagine that David reaches out to them, and they become like those friends that just happen to have a child together. It happens! I think it would be sweet. (But I'm sure that's just me being schmaltzy).

Edit: well... I had this at 4 stars originally, but thinking back, the story wasn't all that memorable at all. The format was amusing, though!
