Description

The incomparable Lisa Scottoline, along with daughter Francesca, is back with more wild and wonderful wit and wisdom: My Nest Isn't Empty, It Just Has More Closet Space.New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline struck a chord with readers, book clubs, and critics with her smash-hit essay collection, Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog. This time, Lisa teams up with Daughter Francesca to give their mother-daughter perspective on everything from blind dates to empty calories, as well as life with the feistiest octogenarian on the planet, Mother Mary, who won't part with her thirty-year-old bra. Three generations of women, triple the laughs---and the love.Inspired by their weekly "Chick Wit" column for The Philadelphia Inquirer, Lisa and Francesca spill all their family secrets---which will sound a lot like yours. And you'll have to put this book down, just to stop laughing.LISA ON DIETING: I'm backsliding with carbohydrates, which is the food version of ex-sex.FRANCESCA ON CUTTING THE CORD: I thought I said, "I am going to see my cousin's new apartment," but in Mom-speak that translates to: "I am going to meet certain death in the New York City subway tunnels that are soon to be my tomb."LISA ON MOTHER MARY: Most people have a list of Things To Do, but Mother Mary has a list of Things Not To Do. At the top is Don't Go to the Movies. Other entries include Don't Eat Outside With The Bugs and Don't Walk All Over This Cockamamie Mall.FRANCESCA ON BEING SINGLE: I'm addicted to the wedding announcements. Worse, I find myself subtracting my age from the bride's. I thought I was a modern woman, turns out I'm a Cathy cartoon.LISA ON AGING GRACEFULLY: Today I noticed my first gray hair. On my chin.And so much more!

At first I didn't really want to read this book. When the title was announced at our November book club meeting, I immediately judged it as being silly and frivolous. Nevertheless, I downloaded it to my Kindle, and I ended up enjoying it so much that I hated for it to end. I found myself reading certain passages aloud (watching the Animal Hoarders with her seven animals, her criteria for buying a new car, and the GNO). In fact ALL of it was enjoyable, and I'm sure glad that I didn't judge the book totally by its title. In fact, the author had me in the very beginning when she writes that Nancy Drew lives on because her life is "still all of our lives, as ordinary extraordinary women."Scottoline manages to add a unique sense of humor to serious life issues as well as the daily mundane ones that we all have to deal with. I'm now looking forward to reading some of her mysteries...and I'm wondering if she'd come to one of our book club meetings and bring Mother Mary with her!
