First time for me to read this author. Wow, such an interesting writing style and such quirky characters!
The 2nd page, she describes the ex-mother-in-law in terms of her ex-husband's desk which she evidently despised: "A lot of really big trees had died to make that desk. His mother had probably gnawed them down, used her nails to saw the boards, and finished the decorative cutwork with her tongue." Just say how you feel; no hostility there. It was great, and fun. This book has ghosts, children she describes as "Damien and the Bad Seed" and really strange characters. I would definitely read another even though it's far from my usual type of book.
