Act I: Avoid conflict at all costs. Even when someone signs you up for something you really don't want to do. Act II: Try to hold things together, even when your life is spinning out of control. Act III: (You'll have to read the book to learn how it all plays out.)

Playwright Leah Townsend doesn't think of herself as a doormat. In fact, her life is pretty good. There's the gorgeous and dependable Edward (even if he is a little dull), and her challenging career (even if the last two plays were flops). The trouble is, Leah's feeling restless these days. The new play isn't going well. Her agent is handing out ultimatums. And her boyfriend Edward, who insists Leah "doesn't handle conflict well," has the nerve to enroll her in a conflict-management class full of people she's sure are her polar opposites, including a conservative talk-radio host named Cinco Dublin who thrives on the very thing Leah wants to avoid--making waves. Can a conflict-challenged playwright ever learn to stand her ground...even if life doesn't come in three predictable acts?

I wanted to read the book to understand the character 's journey to understanding her true self. I really appreciate it. I have seen the film that was based on the book and prefer the book but still appreciate the film. Thanks for sharing Rene.

I watched the film (Loves Complicated) before reading the book and loved it. I loved the book just as much. It's funny, easy to read and grips you right from the beginning. I read it in a day I couldn't put it down.

... und wollte nun gern auch das Buch lesen. Ebenfalls sehr unterhaltsam, aber doch auch mit Tiefe. Viel zu schnell fertig gelesen!

Oh my goodness! This book! I couldn’t have read it at a better time! It perked up a day of quarantine that’s for sure. I went from little giggles, to a chuckle, on to outright loud laughing (much to my sleeping husband’s dismay), snort-laughing, yelling at characters, crying over them, cheering... I loved the story so much, I bought copies to share with my fellow book snobs. And they too approved!

Funny in Three Acts

Reviewed in the United States on 20 May 2018

Rene Gutteridge creates believable characters that are interesting and just a bit off center. This is just one of the reasons why her novels are so enjoyable. Her writing doesn't depend on graphic sex, violence or language to advance the story. As I get to know the characters better, I want to know more about what happens to them.

In "My Life as a Doormat" Leah Townsend has a predictable life with a predictable (read boring) boyfriend and together their predictable relationship has no surprises. When Leah shows up at a conflict resolution group that she thinks her boyfriend signed them both up for, she is shocked to find out that he expected her to attend by herself.

If you think being safe is the best you can hope for in life, join Leah to find out what can happen when you learn how to say no.
