This probably made a good magazine article somewhere, but expanding it to book-length was, well, a stretch. I like Amy Dickinson for her practical, intuitive, humble approach on giving advice to strangers, and those things show up in this book, but there is a surprising lack of insight. Can you tell I was disappointed?

I LOVE "The Might Queens of Freeville: A story of Surprising Second Changes." Amy Dickinson is an engaging, approachable, transparent woman who lives right in my community. Freeville is a small village outside of Ithaca, NY. I've heard Amy speak at women's groups, seen her "being herself" at the Verizon Store, etc. One friend who lives in Freeville said that Amy is in a community choir with one of her sisters as choir director. Her husband, Bruno, is very active in community affairs. I wish that Amy would write a book to follow this one up.
