Little Children - Tom Perrotta

By the author of Joe College (I recommend) and Election (liked the movie, but haven't read the book). This book had the same feel for me as the movie "American Beauty" - privileged suburbanites frustrated with their children and bored with their spouses who are incredibly selfish and choose to ignore the potential consequences of their actions. This was a quick entertaining read. I didn't like any of the characters, but I was still interested in finding out what happened to them. I'm also curious to see how this was recently turned into a movie (which I've heard received good reviews).
