About book Meet Me At Emotional Baggage Claim (2012)
Lisa Scottoline (and sometimes her daughter Francesca Serritella) write newspaper articles. The book is a collection of these stories. They remind us of the relationships we have with our daughters, mothers, and grandmothers and put a humorus slant on them. (make us laugh at ourselves) many great quotes in this book..... "When in doubt, blame it on your mother." Time isn't a string with a beginning and an end.....the past is with us always, as it is in the future." "You should never look around your house. You see things. (like she needed new curtains and if you get new curtains, she had to clean her whole house)." So, if you need a quick read with laughs and a few thoughtful moments....this is the book for you. To add this to my "read" shelf is a bit of an overstatement. I actually only read about 1/3 of it, but I don't have any intention of finishing. I have liked other books that accomplish what this book is trying to achieve (Bossypants by Tina Fey, everything by David Sedaris). However, this book just doesn't achieve it. It felt very much like a compilation that was thrown together because there was a deadline. I listened to the book on Audible and was not fond of the narration either. Francesca in particular sounded like she was "fake smiling" whenever she read her sections.

I love these books. I laugh, I cry, and I relate to the stories and those envolved.
