"The Washington Post"
Screamingly funnyreads like an AARP-issued "Bridget Jones Diary,"This is the kind of book you gobble up, then re-read so you can hoot out loud all over again.
"USA Today"
Maries wicked sense of humor makes this a fun read. . . . This novel is more than a light romp. Marie shows great heart and wisdom as she experiences joys and sorrows.
