Storybook
I found Author Elizabeth Owen tonight. I really want to read My (not) so storybook life. Here is part of the description from amazon.com. (Can't wait to but and read!)
fresh, funny and poignant, my (not so) storybook life is old-fashioned humor mashed with literary spoofery. elizabeth thinks of herself and her husband, matt, as a modern day lucy and ricky ricardo. together they've endured paint-color mishaps, sewage disasters, pest infestations, and a schnauzer that poops at tornado sirens. it was hardly the domestic perfection a young liz imagined while reading anne of green gables and pride and prejudice. could it be that these literary stalwarts had led her astray?
liz tells the story of her own path to happiness, along the way seeking revenge on her literary heroes: jo march, elizabeth bennett, and anne shirley.
