I enjoyed meeting up again with my new friends in Elk Lake, Wisconsin. Melissa is a kind compassionate character who is trying to make peace with her past and her family. I enjoyed her interactions with Jamie’s daughter, Sammie, and her interactions with her mother. Jamie is an amazing single dad, and the story has an interesting spin on his situation. The supporting characters added humor, depth and charm to the story. I am feeling very connected to my new friends in Elk Lake, Wisconsin and love the town.
This is a delightful redemptive story. The author weaves humor through the hard things in life and offers a great ending. I recommend Pity Party by Whitney Dineen.
I was given a copy by the publisher and not required to write a positive review.
USA Today Bestselling author Whitney Dineen is a rock star in her own head. While delusional about her singing abilities, there’s been a plethora of validation that she’s a fairly decent author (AMAZING!!!). After winning many writing awards and selling nearly a kabillion books (math may not be her forte, either), she’s decided to let the voices in her head say whatever they want (sorry, Mom). She also won a fourth-place ribbon in a fifth-grade swim meet in backstroke. So, there’s that.
Whitney loves to hang with her kids (a.k.a. dazzle them with her amazing 80's dance moves, serenading them to Bohemian Rhapsody, and binge watch Ted Lasso ), bake stuff, eat stuff, and write books for people who "get" her. She thinks French fries are the perfect food and Mrs. Roper is her spirit animal.
