A misanthropic matriarch leaves her eccentric family in crisis when she mysteriously disappears in this "whip-smart and divinely funny" novel that inspired the movie starring Cate Blanchett (New York Times).

Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect; and to 15-year-old Bee, she is her best friend and, simply, Mom.

Then Bernadette vanishes. It all began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle -- and people in general -- has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic.

To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, and secret correspondence -- creating a compulsively readable and surprisingly touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's role in an absurd world.

What a nice surprise
Color: Black, Color: Black
This purse totally surprised me. It is so nice. It feels rich, soft but structured. Looks way more expensive. I love it. Update. My only complaint after using is the magnet closure isn’t really strong so can open easily

Amazing bag
Color: Black
Omg this is seriously the cutest bag. I purchased the black so classy looking and I love that you can carry It 3 different way. It looks like an expensive bag. Can’t wait to use It at some weddings as a clutch and then a cross body or shoulder bag other days. . It has card slots in It which is so good when you don’t want to carry a wallet. I did put a small wallet my phone and lip gloss and keys and still have room.

Nice bag
Not a bad bag just not my favorite. Looks different once it came in the mail and the quality wasn’t as nice but still very spacious. It’s a nice daily bag but not what I had needed.
