Raney is a gemand a captivating character-a female Huck Finn whose voyage of discovery takes her into the treacherous currents of marriage. This book is too good to keep to yourself. Read it aloud to someone you love then send it to a friend but keep a copy yourself because you'll want to read it again and again. Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey author of "A woman of Independent Means".
She burrows her way into the reader's heart and even when you suspect her motives are less than virtuous you can't help cheering her to victory. This trip through Raney's mind is a marvelously fresh and funny journey." Janet Majerus author of "Grandpa and Frank".
