review 1: A very quick read that is a lot of fun. Sometimes it's silly, sometimes it's sweet. I do wish that Francesca had more representation in the book, but overall I enjoyed it. I really liked hearing their differing takes on Mother Mary, Lisa's mom and Francesca's grandmother. Hearing about divorce and dating just from Lisa so often took away from the Mother-Daughter aspect of the story I think. Still generally enjoyable though.
review 2: I became a Lisa Scottoline fan back in the days of her all women law firm with a mystery that just needed solving. Loved them all. Now she has entered two different areas. She is now writing some novels that are more reminiscent of Jodi Picoult in that they involve relationships and a current day topic such as bullying. The thir... mored area are the books that are compilations of the columns that she and daughter Francesca write for the Philadelphia Inquirer. This book is the fourth one that they have written together and as usual made me laugh at loud as they discuss everyday topics and their unique look at them. Having a daughter who is about the same age as Francesca, who just recently moved to NYC makes me relate even more to some of the topics within the covers. It is an enjoyable, fun read and I am looking forward to her next one which is due out before too long.I have been to see Lisa in person at a library in NJ and I have been to her home with my daughter and sister. I guess you could say we're "besties". At least that is the way she makes you feel when you are with her. Keep writing, Lisa! less
