Multiple Choice - Hardcover

Claire Cook is the author of the novels Must Love Dogs and Ready to Fall. A teacher of physical fitness and creative writing, she has had previous stints as a copywriter, radio continuity director, garden designer, and dance and aerobics choreographer.

When March Monroe's daughter, Olivia, goes off to college, March decides it's the perfect opportunity to finish her own much delayed degree. As if being a middle-aged coed isn't daunting enough, March's life becomes even more complicated when she discovers that she and Olivia have both signed up for the same internship at a local radio station. Add to the mix a precocious teenage son, Jackson, and a depressed parakeet, and March quickly starts to feel overwhelmed. In the voice of Carrington McDuffie the characters are sharply defined by Olivia's haughty pout, March's strained patience, and Jackson's lovable yet brutal honesty. Highlights are the multiple-choice questions that begin each chapter, read with wry humor. J.G.K. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
