What others are saying about Home Sweet Homes
“I read it late at night and tried to keep quiet because I wanted to laugh out loud. Man, it was a funny book.”
“I laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe. I hope that the next time Diane moves it will be to the house next door.”
“This book was less of a guide and more like having a seasoned veteran sit you down for a glass of wine and a little chat that you’re going to be just fine (even if you have to leave behind the playhouse!) as you prepare to move.”
“I used to buy Dave Barry’s Homes and Other Black Holes as a gift for someone who is moving, but Home Sweet Homes is my new favorite. It’s human, believable, sweet and funny.”
“Her Erma Bombeck style leaves the reader wanting a sequel!!!”
