I loved this book. That is the first thing I need to put down in this review. The stories collected in this book are both funny and reflective. At the end of several of these stories I will admit that I started laughing out loud. Whenever I need a quick read to perk me up this will be the book that I grab. The stories themselves are only two to three pages in length and require no time to read but are delightful. I am going to be looking the author’s first book, With Malice Toward Some.

Some of my favorite stories are:

Midlife Crises: This is the first story in the book and it starts the entire collection off with a bang. Woman scorned not wanting to give up on her man.

The Widow and the Leaking Toilet: Widow in need of plumbing help has toilet removed and left in yard laughter ensues.

Assisted Living: Gambling grandma need I say more.

Widow for Rent: Lonely widow looking for companionship.

All of these stories made me laugh while reading them. Again I have to say I love this book.
