Book Review: Miss Dreamsville and the Lost Heiress of Collier County

Miss Dreamsville and the Lost Heiress of Collier County is the next part of Miss Dreamsville and the Collier County Women's Literary Society.

Set in 1964, the ladies decide to fight a new development where Delores Simpson lives in a fishing shack.

Darryl Norwood is the ex-husband of Dora Witherspoon, who has given her assistance to the fight. And what a fight is is becoming, including a court hearing and a reappearance of a ghost.

This is a quick, very enjoyable story. I did not feel lost by not reading the first book. The characters are well developed and fun to follow along. I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys reading and laughing at the same time.

I was given this book by NetGalley and Atria Books in exchange for my honest review.

Book Review: How to be a Grown-Up

This book, How to be a Grown-Up, is such a fun, enjoyable book.

The main character is a stylist by the name of Rory. She is 41, married to Blake, an actor, and she has two kids. This family lives in New York City. Rory's husband is trying to decide if he wants to remain married and Rory's job has just become more difficult because of some new clients.

I feel like the characters are very well written, even the other people in the book, such as Claire and Jessica, Rory's true-blue best friends.

I knew when I picked up this book I would probably be smiling while I read and I was right. I believe that if the reader enjoys Chick-lit they will also enjoy this book.
