Book Description:
Best friends fast approaching forty in the small Minnesota town of Flame Lake, Devera and BiDi were recently voted Least Changed at their twentieth high school reuniona label neither one finds very appealing. For each craves a change in her life: Devera desires a break from her humdrum marital routine; BiDi longs to reconnect with her distant fourteen-year-old daughter (the only girl on the high school hockey team), not to mention jump-start a sex drive stuck in neutral. So when Devera's husband decides to fulfill his longtime dream of opening a nightclub in his basement, Your Oasis on Flame Lake arrives not a moment too soon. Nothing fancy, it's just a BYOB joint where you can hang out, sing, dance, tell jokes, and be yourself. But then an unexpected crisis throws both families into chaos, forcing them all to take stock of their livesand learn the power of forgiveness.

Mary M. (I tried, but absolutely could not get interested in this book. Landvik worked too hard at being funny--it didn't take.
It was a very different format to read, but I did enjoy getting to know all the characters is this manner. Good, quick read.
Every book she has written I have loved. This is no exception
I really love Lorna Landvik's style of writing. This was a good book. Each chapter is narrated by one of five people & it centers on two families who are good friends.
Sharon G. (This was a good book, not the usual quirky characters as in Angry Wives or House of Curl, but I couldn't put it down.
Barbara S. (If you liked Angry Housewives Eating Bon-Bons...you'll enjoy this one! A touching and funny story of a group of middle-aged friends opening a nightclub!
