The Amazing Adventures of an Ordinary Woman
At last, together in one collection, are Lisa Scottoline's wildly popular Philadelphia Inquirer columns. In her column, Lisa lets her hair down, roots and all, to show the humorous side of life from a woman's perspective. The Sunday column debuted in 2007 and on the day it started, Lisa wrote, "I write novels, so I usually have 100,000 words to tell a story. In a column there's only 700 words. I can barely say hello in 700 words. I'm Italian." The column gained momentum and popularity. Word of mouth spread, and readers demanded a collection. Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog is that collection. Seventy vignettes. Vintage Scottoline.
In this collection, youll laugh about:
And so much more about life, love, family, pets, and the pursuit of jeans that actually fit!
"Brief, punchy slices of daily life...this ordinary woman faces [daily conundrums] with verve and wicked humor, especially how her beloved dogs have contentedly replaced the romance in her life." - Publishers Weekly
