Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog by Lisa Scottoline

This one's for you, extraordinary ordinary women everywhere It's time for seriously hilarious girl-talk with New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline.

She's shared this collection of scenes from her real life, and she bets her life sounds a lot like yours . . . if you crave carbs, can't find jeans that fit, and still believe that these two things are unrelated. Pick up this book--you'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll swear off pantyhose. Here are some examples of Lisa's wit and wisdom:

Mothers are a natural force, and maybe an alternative source of fuel.

Lately there's been talk about a religion that allows polygamy, so that a man can have as many wives as he pleases. Where is the religion that allows a woman to have as many husbands as she pleases?

I have never been in an accident, if you don't count my two marriages.

My mother taught us that if you eat baked beans from a can that has dents, you'll die of botulism. This was before people injected botulism into their faces. Nowadays, the dented can will kill you, but you'll look young.

Inspired by her wildly popular column in The Philadelphia Inquirer entitled Chick Wit, Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog is a book you'll have to put down--just to stop laughing.
