I Need a Lifeguard Everywhere but the Pool by Lisa Scottoline
Lisa Scottoline and her daughter, Francesca Serritella, are back with another collection of funny, candid, and wonderfully relatable essays about family, relationships, everyday frustrations, and the absurdities of modern life.
Written from two generations and two distinct perspectives, I Need a Lifeguard Everywhere but the Pool finds humor in everything from mothers and daughters to pets, technology, aging, dating, and the little disasters that make ordinary life interesting. Their affectionate banter and willingness to laugh at themselves make this an easygoing collection that feels a lot like catching up with old friends.
Warm, witty, and filled with observations readers will recognize from their own lives, it's a fun change of pace for readers who know Scottoline primarily for her bestselling legal thrillers.
