the last book I ever read (The Anthropologists by Aysegül Savas, excerpt eight)

from The Anthropologists by Aysegül Savas:

When Ravi arrived, he greeted Lena briefly, before joining another conversation. Lena came up to me.

You’re such a good housewife, she said.

It was the sort of comment she and I would have laughed about, but I didn’t find it funny after a day of cooking. In fact, I was finding it harder to laugh with Lena. She could probably sense this because she was all the more sarcastic.
