Carol Wood Reviews:
Every once in a while I find a book that just so inspires me to write my fingers get itchy. This is one of those (scratch, scratch, scratch) books. Her crazy style of flipping from one subject to the next becomes quickly addictive and not just because of the story but the fact that she tells it so openly and honestly. I was a little put off at first by her blunt way of describing her mother - sort of I never liked my mother- routine. Might be because I am a mother, but then I continued to turn pages, and she didn't leave anything out. She had the resentment, sure, but then she left in the shared happiness too. Plenty of laughs and a cup full of tears. I really did start crying when she described Denny's funeral. But throughout her whole life Marcia has been full of humor. It was such a gratifying read. And inspiring. It made me think that there is a way to say things that makes it all to real and perfectly alrighty then. I think this woman could write a grocery list and make it interesting, believable and you'd be pre-ordering the sequel. BUY THIS BOOK! But Buyers beware, you may need to purchase a handy laugh muffler to quiet your huge gaffaws if you read in public places. To find out more about Marcia and where she will be appearing next, go to |
