About book The Good Luck Girls Of Ship Wreck Lane (2000)
Janine Brown of Cedar Falls, Iowa is the lucky winner of a dream home in Maine. The only problem is there are two Janine Browns, and both claim the prize. Janey's Aunt Midge is actually the one who entered the contest in her name, and she's all set to move to Maine to share the house with her grandniece. Nean is planning to use the house as a springboard to escape her life being a down-and-out battered woman. Their lives intersect and become interwoven as they share the house that brought them together.Although it sounds like a cliché to say this is a story about second chances, and learning to love again, and what it means to be a family, and what it takes to make a friend, this is really a wonderfully engaging book. This one just gets an okay, for easy to read and light hearted. Janey is painfully shy, her great aunt who is coarse, but love-able enters her in a contest to win a house. Another woman with the same name decides to also win the house. She has a history of poor decisions, from shoplifting to abusive boyfriends. They become best of friends and look out for each other, a bit hokey. Don't take this one too seriously, in the years that I lived in Maine, I never met a local who paid for restaurant lobster, the mark-up is ridiculous. Homeless shelter sounded like a B&B If you can put your logic on hold, it is an easy read.
