BOOK REPORT......

The Most Famous Illegal Goose Creek Parade - Virginia Smith

















Product Description(Amazon.com)
n this first book of the Tales from the Goose Creek B&B, you'll fall in love with a small town that feels like coming home. Its quirky characters and their many shenanigans will make you laugh out loud as they touch a place in your heart. Even though retirement is still three years away, Al Richardson is counting the days. He anticipates many enjoyable years in which every day feels like Saturday. But Al's wife, Millie, has different plans for their retirement. When she learns that a Victorian-era home is up for sale, Millie launches a full-blown campaign to convince Al that God's plan for them is to turn that house into a B&B. But a B&B won't be the only change for the small Kentucky town. A new veterinarian has hung up her shingle, but she's only got one patient - the smelly dog belonging to her part-time receptionist. And sides are being taken in the issue of the water tower, which needs a new coat of paint...but no one can agree who should paint it. The situation is coming to a head. Who could have imagined a town protest over a water tower? And who would believe it could culminate in an illegal parade?

MY THOUGHTS:  This was a really funny book.  And very charming, with lots of characters to keep your interest in the book.  I kept reading because I wanted to find out if Millie talked Al into buying the house, then I wanted to know what happens to the water tower.  With a little romance thrown in with the new Veterinarian and the Handyman.  Then you have a town torn in two over the water tower and gets really funny.  I give this book 5.....
