A collection of really funny, ironic, slice-of-life vignettes originally published as newspaper columns in the Philadelphia Inquirer. I haven't ever read any of Scottoline's novels, but the wit and dry humor of the observations in this book has intrigued me. I'll take a look at her novels now.
She has really captured some of the joys and pitfalls of being a woman of a 'certain age'. She is firmly caught in the middle between a daughter who just graduated from college and an 83 year-old mother who lives in Miami with her brother Frank. It was a fun light read that made me smile or chuckle at least once while reading each column.
