Ariel Baxter has just moved into the neighborhood of her dreams. The chaos of domestic life and the loneliness of motherhood, however, moved with her. Then she meets her neighbor, Justine Miller. Justine ushers Ariel into a world of clutter-free houses, fresh-baked bread, homemade crafts, neighborhood playdates, and organization techniques designed to make marriage better and parenting manageable.

Soon Ariel realizes there is hope for peace, friendship, and clean kitchen counters. But when rumors start to circulate about Justine's real home life, Ariel must choose whether to believe the best about the friend she admires or consider the possibility that "perfection" isn't always what it seems to be.

A novel for every woman who has looked at another woman's life and said, "I want what she has," She Makes It Look Easy reminds us of the danger of pedestals and the beauty of authentic friendship.

      Ariel Baxter is dissatisfied with her marriage and overwhelmed by motherhood. When she moves into a new neighborhood, she is befriended by Justine Miller, whose life seems ideal. Justine shares tips for success, and soon Ariel is feeling hopeful again. Then rumors circulate that Justine's home life might not be quite as rosy as she presented it. VERDICT Everyday characters live ordinary lives and prove that the grass is not always greener on the other side in this second novel by Whalen (following The Mailbox). This is an enjoyable, quick read. Recommend it to readers who enjoy Lynne Hinton and Beth Pattillo.
