What Readers Are
Saying About NNAOPP:
NNAOPP reminded me of Confederacy of Dunces. Perhaps it was your turn of phrase, or perhaps just the amount of laughter
while reading it. Bless you for
writing this book! We all need the laughter in our lives!
Recently
I have had several nights where I wake up at 2:30 unable to go back to sleep. I
turned on the light and read chapters from your book (I keep it on my night
stand) and have laughed out loud so much I scared my cat.
There are not many books I have read in my life that have triggered
spontaneous out loud laughter. NNAOPP did.
Your book arrived in my mailbox yesterday. At 2 a.m. I became ill (24 hour
bug?). I began reading nude nuns
today and have experienced a full recovery. I attribute this speedy recovery to the frequent bursts of
laughing out loud!
My continuous chuckles and outright laughter while reading NNAOPP in
an airport caused a number of people to give me worried looks. The zany stories
and characters described are certifiably true for anyone who grew up in the
1950s and attended college in the 1960s. This book is a great story of
Midwestern Americana and a hilarious view on life that is rare and perhaps
nearing extinction.
I just
received this 'book review' from my 91-year old lesbian aunt. She is a
voracious reader, so I bought and sent her a copy when I purchased mine. This
is what she said, "I always meant to tell you that Nude Nuns &
Other Peculiar People was one of the best funny books I've read in years.
Loved the Nude Nuns story."
There is
a line in Forrest Gump with Forrest sitting on the bench, and he had just
finished telling the old lady on the park bench his life story. The lady
on the bench says, with a clear demeanor of mild disbelief, "What a
beautiful story. And you tell it so well." Your book is a great
story, and you tell it very well.
