But her sense of humor kept me going. I think it's based on a true story of an investment club that gets rich. A love story of sorts is intertwined. I like the "one liners" and could definetely see this made into a movie. ( ) Kind of a cute little book...the opening reads: If you picked up this book looking for one of those bikini-ripping sagas about jet-setting beauties....forget it,. Except for the gorgeous Heidi, whose smallest gesture had grown men biting their palms and howling at the moon, the Larksdale Ladies were mostly a bunch of decent, ordinary women of carious ages and middle-class backgrounds.

Cynthia Hartwick's lighthearted novel is an irresistible rags-to-riches adventure. Set in Minnesota in 1983, it combines the wry Midwestern humor of Garrison Keillor with the gentleness and warmth of Jan Karon. Its characters, a group of mostly married, mostly middle-aged ladies, will have you laughing out loud from the first sentence. The Larksdale ladies meet over coffee cake and crafts every Saturday morning. But one day, when they take a long, hard look at their finances, they realize they will be very poor in their old age. So they decide to become an investment club and earn enough for a more comfortable retirement. Their rise from modest investors to millionaires is an adventure that exceeds their wildest expectations. As the intrepid Larksdale ladies venture into the financial world, you'll be cheering them on with each surprising transaction. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
