  • Better Laughter Than Tears

    Although the author is young - compared to me anyway - she has a clever and sharp eye for life's most peculiar moments. She is so TEXAS and knows that sometimes the most difficult or wierdest incidents can make you stronger if you let it.

  • If you like tongue in cheek sarcastic humor, this book is for you!

    Hilarious author. I keep re-reading some chapters and still laugh until I cry. Ms. Lawson is tongue in cheek funny. I also had a book sent to my sister and she loves it too.
