Good Eggs
Happy Saturday everyone!! This morning I’m currently curled up with a cup of cinnamon nutmeg coffee and Rebecca Hardiman’s debut book Good Eggs . I’m almost finished with this book and it has been a fun-filled read!
Good Eggs is a character driven story full of humor and real family drama and issues. So far my favorite characters are the grandmother, Millie, and her teenage granddaughter, Aideen. These two lively ladies have had me laughing and rolling right along with them as they embark on their own adventure. Millie really is quite the character, and she does not care about what anyone says which leads to some pretty saucy conversations.
If you are looking for a fun family drama, where nothing goes as planned, and with some laugh-out-loud humor than this book is for you! Look for it in book stores on March 2nd, or preorder your copy today!
Synopsis: When Kevin Gogarty’s irrepressible eighty-three-year-old mother, Millie, is caught shoplifting yet again, he has no choice but to hire a caretaker to keep an eye on her. Kevin, recently unemployed, is already at his wits’ end tending to a full house while his wife travels to exotic locales for work, leaving him solo with his sulky, misbehaved teenaged daughter, Aideen, whose troubles escalate when she befriends the campus rebel at her new boarding school.
Into the Gogarty fray steps Sylvia, Millie’s upbeat home aide, who appears at first to be their saving grace—until she catapults the Gogarty clan into their greatest crisis yet.
With charm, humor, and pathos to spare, Good Eggs is a delightful study in self-determination; the notion that it’s never too late to start living; and the unique redemption that family, despite its maddening flaws, can offer.
