Quirky & ode to Seattle, Today Will Be Different is about Eleanor Flood, an animator. That's the initial sign of quirkiness.
An estranged sister, legendary southern gentleman Bucky (Jody from the Mindy Show pops into my mind every time Bucky is mentioned) and young son Timby haunt Eleanor's quest to be a better version of herself.
And by better version, we mean only wearing yoga clothes when going to yoga classes.
Witty with a protagonist who has an acute awareness that she is a less than perfect Mom, Today Will Be Different kept my interest, culminating in a truly unexpected ending where Eleanor realizes where her husband Joe has been playing hooky to for the last week.
Similar to my thoughts about Where'd You Go, Bernadette which so many people enjoyed, I really can not say if it's good or bad, just quirky
