Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog
A hilarious collection of stories from the life of the New York Times bestselling author of Look Again
At last, together in one collection, are Lisa Scottoline's wildly popular Philadelphia Inquirer columns. In her column, Lisa lets her hair down, roots and all, to show the humorous side of life from a woman's perspective. The Sunday column debuted in 2007 and on the day it started, Lisa wrote, "I write novels, so I usually have 100,000 words to tell a story. In a column there's only 700 words. I can barely say hello in 700 words. I'm Italian." The column gained momentum and popularity. Word of mouth spread, and readers demanded a collection. Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog is that collection. Seventy vignettes. Vintage Scottoline.
In this collection, you'll laugh about:
• Being caught braless in the emergency room
• Betty and Veronica's Life Lessons for Girls
• A man's most important body part
• Interrupting as an art form
• A religion men and women can worship
• Real estate ads as porn
• Spanx are public enemy number one
• And so much more about life, love, family, pets, and the pursuit of jeans that actually fit!

Loved it! And 90 percent of it could have been written by me- if I could write. Wow- I think she is my sister from another Mother. It was almost spooky in the similar thoughts and situations. And my 2nd husband is a dog, the calmest chihuahua in the world that worships the ground I walk on. Keep on writing Lisa.

I'm a big fan of chick wit and being from the south, I skew heavily towards southern authors like Celia Rivenbark. But i gave Lisa Scottoline a try, and loved her! Her wit and honesty will make you chuckle and nod your head in solidarity!
