All the Single Ladies | 
pickI needed a light, fun, funny book with a little bit of chew and this one worked for me. I loved the character of Lisa St Clair immediately; she made me lol and I could identify with her on some things 😉 from workplace stresses to family dysfunction, old friends and relationships to new friends and relationships, a mystery and of course, love. A perfect book after some heavier material 😁 Book 11 for #15books15weeks.
Picked up this gem at a local used book store. I've always enjoyed reading Dorothea Benton Frank books-still can't believe she's gone after a short illness. I don't live in the low country but enjoy reading books in this setting. This book was full of southern charm and these single ladies deserve some happiness👍 would love to be their neighbor😊
I like this cover for yesterday‘s prompt of #swimming 🏊♀️ #readingresolutions @Jess7
pickThat little tagline that lists what I'm reading? It's all a lie, y'all. I keep getting sidetracked by books that just saunter across my path. Dot Frank reliably turns out a book a year, and so when I was checking on what she's got coming out next, I found this. Low country setting? Feisty octogenarian? Cad of an ex-husband? Supportive female friends? You betcha. A nice read. Frank makes the Low Country magnetic.
A small preview of our relocated Local Author stacks! Now better than ever before :).
My first attempt at a #bookrainbow 🌈 (A tad late..) I'm going to make time soon to go through allll of my books to make a bigger one. 🤞🏻 #fallintobooks @RealLifeReading
Set in the state where I live. #nearwhereyoulive #riotgrams #day16 #dayslate
I spy a little library in our beach house!!📚❤️📚❤️I haven't read any of her books, but maybe I will this week!! I only brought 5 and a kindle lol high expectations!! @Zelma We were just talking about her books!
I went completely literal for #allthesingleladies today, because this is a fun read. It's a perfect beach book. I enjoy Frank's novels, and she has a new one out that I need to get my hands on. #junebookbugs
pickFrank's books are always enjoyable reads, and this one hits her usual marks. Clever, engaging characters, at least one dysfunctional relationship, a beautiful Lowcountry setting. Also as usual, she touches on some more serious topics, in this case elder care and the legal marijuana issue. It's not great literature, but a pleasant read. And this completes #letterA for #LitsyAtoZ.
Feeling a bit better today, but still have a fever. At least I'm out of my pjs and in the recliner, watching soccer and starting my fifth book of the year. This is probably a record for me.
This line is just one example of why I love the way this woman writes! Warning! If you're prudish, you will be offended. And bless your heart....
"I was in a situation because for the first time in at least ten years I felt a powerful twitch south of the Mason-Dixon line in my personal Lowcountry."
If you didn't just laugh out loud, next time you're in the Lowcountry, let me know. I'll buy you a beer so we can loosen ya up a bit.
Started this after finishing Stephen King's "Doctor Sleep." Needed a little something different, and Miz Dorothea always delivers. I've been a fan forever, especially since I know the Lowcountry very, very well, and so her tales never fail to keep me enchanted and entertained.
Montclair Author Dorothea Benton Franklin's books make for the BEST #beachreads.
pickAnyone hitting the beach this weekend? ALL THE SINGLE LADIES is perfect to bring along with you. We love this smart, sassy and moving story about three friends. 🌴🌊
pickI really enjoyed this story of three women coming together through adversity to become close friends and how love touched each of their lives. I actually found myself laughing out loud while listening to this audio version.
