Those Other Women by Nicola Moriarty FIC More

        The title refers to the way Poppy refers to women with children.  She and her husband had decided not to have children. Poppy’s best friend doesn’t have children.  Everyone is happy - until Poppy comes home to find her husband and bff waiting to talk to her......seems her husband is now in love with her bff (he used to complain about her all the time!) and he wants a divorce. Oh, I forgot to mention that her bff is pregnant!
     Poppy moves out and finds an apartment above that of Annalise - a co-worker and soon to become her new friend.  Together they begin an online group made up of  childless women who celebrate their freedom and want to socialize where they can air their complaints about women at work who often need special favors to attend to their children. Or the children that  interfere with their evenings out in a restaurant.
     There is another online group in their town.  It’s made up of mothers who want to support each other in the tough task of raising children.
     When the mom group finds out about the anti-children group things are going to get nasty.
An entertaining book!
