First off, my book is not posted so I am not trying to get you to order it.
I was caught up in this story. Anyone who is an adult child of an alcoholic will see their own absurdities in these pages. What I enjoyed most was the author never feels sorry for herself. There is compassion and I suspect at times she kept the less attractive matters private, however, that does not diminish the story in anyway.
Her stories are riveting, she admires her father's stories hence the title, "The Liar's Club" a group of buddies, he was a part throughout his life. Mary Marlene got his genes for story telling ability.
Almost as good as "Change Me Into Zeus' Daughter" or "Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight".
