My Nest Isn't Empty, It Just Has More Closet Space
My Nest Isn't Empty, It Just Has More Closet Space: The Amazing Adventures of an Ordinary Woman | Lisa Scottoline, Francesca Serritella
3 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
Critics and readers loved Lisa Scottoline's first collection of true-life stories, which only encouraged hernow she's back with these all-new, exciting adventures. She's farther down the road now, and the scenery has changedex-husbands Thing One and Thing Two are in her rear-view mirror, daughter Francesca has moved into an apartment, and Lisa's finding the silver lining in her empty nest, which has lots more room for her shoes. And some things have stayed the sameMother Mary is still the feistiest octogenarian on the planet, who won't part with her recipe for tomato sauce or her thirty-year old bra. In this book Lisa and Francesca spill all their family secretswhich sound a lot like yours, if you understand that three generations of women is the formula for spontaneous combustion. Inspired by her weekly column entitled, "Chick Wit" for The Philadelphia Inquirer, this is a book you'll have to put downjust to stop laughing.

Such a great, funny, and honest collection of nonfiction stories by Lisa Scottoline and her daughter Francesca. This is my first read of Lisa‘s nonfiction books and it was like attending one of her signings. She‘s hilarious and such a great person. I want to be more like her! 💛

Suet624 Thanks for the review. Just downloaded the audio from my library as a result. 5y

I listened​ to the audio book version of this on my commute and to say it was laugh-out-loud funny is an understatement! I loved it so much that early on in this book, I put holds on several more of her books in the audio version form. It sure makes the commute enjoyable, in fact there are days that I don't want to get out of the car LOL I think Lisa and I could be good friends 😁
