I was wavering between a 4 and a 5 the entire way through the book, and then the ending brought it all the way up to a 5/5.
The  book is narrated by Georgie's husband...it goes back and forth telling  about the life of Dora Jordan also an actress/comedian who Georgie  portrays in a one-woman show and Georgie's life with her husband and  three boys. 
Georgie left the stage in New York to be a  stay-at-home mother, but now that her husband has been transferred to  London and the children are enrolled in London schools, she wants to go  back to work in the theater. 
Georgie lands the role as Dora  Jordan on her first tryout. The play is a hit for Georgie, and she ends  up traveling and leaving her husband and children for long periods of  time and having an affair with the director.  Her heart aches every time  she leaves her children, but she still won't give up the touring.  The  ending will haunt you long after you turn the last page.
....you will enjoy the book and not want to put it down.
