I Don't Know How She Does It: The Life of Kate Reddy, Working Mother: A Novel, by Allison Pearson (Knopf), was selected on January 9 as the next title to be read by the USA Today book club.

The book, which was on the Book Sense 76 list for November/December 2002, was described by Melissa Bernstrom of Hawley-Cooke Booksellers in Louisville, Kentucky, as "one of the funniest books I have ever read…. Any working woman will recognize the hilarious absurdities of Kate's working and family life, while cheering her on for her juggling expertise, her mentoring skill, and her very large heart."
