Meet Me at Emotional Baggage Claim
Best-selling, Edgar Award–winning legal-thriller author and suburban empty-nester Scottoline and her Harvard grad, writing-prize-winner daughter, Serritella, write a column, “Chick Wit” in the Philadelphia Inquirer. They now return to the kitchen to dish up another delicious mix of family and friendship cooked to perfection, as they did in their previous collaborations, My Nest Isn’t Empty, It Just Has More Closet Space (2010) and Best Friends, Occasional Enemies (2011). Building off their laugh-out-loud success, these sassy single gals share the tumultuous terrain of the dating world, the impossibility of finding a good delivery man or a reliable snowblower, and the joys of owning a dog (or five). No subject is off-limits here, as Scottoline and Serritella include relevant quips for women from 18 to 82. With the title serving as a surefire indicator, readers can count on an ab-toning laugh session, a silly giggle, a sympathetic sigh, and a lump in the throat as life’s moments are rehashed through the keen eyes and wits of this lovable mother-daughter duo. --Annie  McCormick
