Louisiana Lucky: A Novel | Julie Pennell
9 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
From the critically acclaimed author of The Young Wives Club, a heartwarming story about friendship, heartache, and self-discovery (Karen White, New York Times bestselling author), comes a charming novel reminiscent of the works of Mary Alice Monroe and Kristy Woodson Harvey, about three sisters who win a huge lottery prize and learn what it truly means to be lucky. Lexi, Callie, and Hanna Breaux grew up in small-town Louisiana, and have always struggled to make ends meet. For years, theyve been playing the lottery, fantasizing about how much better life would be if they had the money. For Lexi, it means the perfect wedding; for Callie, it means having the courage to go after her career dreams; and for Hanna, it means buying a house that isnt falling apart and sending her bullied son to private school. When the incredible happens and the Breaux sisters hit it big$204 million dollars bigall their dreams come true. Or so they think. Because its actually not a clichmoney isnt the answer to everything, and it often comes with problems of its own. Heartfelt, engaging, and featuring characters youll root for from the first moment you meet them, Louisiana Lucky is a satisfying page-turner from a rising star in womens fiction.

PROMPT: LUCKY

The Breaux sisters played the lottery every month.  They let the computer pick two tickets, and the third ticket always had their special numbers.

Years went by using the same numbers and the same routine, but they never won until one evening all the numbers came up.  They were instant millionaires.

A charming, sweet read…https://tinyurl.com/2p8mm2rf

Oh how money changes everything. Changes you into a person you don‘t recognize. This one is kind of aggravating me with the characters bitching about the things they have always wanted. Just now they realize it may not truly have been what they wanted.

My first BINGO for this months #bookspinbingo. It was also my pick for #booked2021 baked goods on the cover. Lexi, Callie and Hanna have grown up in the small town in Louisiana. They have always struggled to make ends meet. So they decided to play the lottery never thinking they will actually win, when until they do. They think the money will solve all of their problems. But will it? This was a quick listen and I enjoyed all of the sisters.

#currentlyreading #louisianalucky by #juliepennell This one is a change of pace from my usual romance, fantasy, and thriller books. It‘s charming Womens fiction that caught my eye at my library‘s new release section. Being a Louisiana girl that has played the lottery on occasion it is interesting to see how the three Breaux sisters plan to spend their new fortune.
