Summary: Hystarically Accurate
Comment: This book came highly recommeded by several of my English collegues, and I completely understand why. Olson effectively captures single life as a working woman in the Midwest. It was witty and accurate. Although some people may see Olson as whining and being egocentric, I believe Olson is simply relating her humorous truth and perception thereof in a manner to which many can relate. I have seldom enjoyed a piece of literature as thoroughly as Children of God Go Bowling.

Rating: 5
Summary: Accurate portrayal of life in Minnesota
Comment: I went to high school with the author and although I didn't know her well, my mother- like hers- tries to "help" My mother sent me her two books. I don't live in Minnesota, but I am very grateful to Shannon for the memories and accurate portrayal of life in Chaska. Right down to Dairy Queen and the off kilter high school french teacher. Please keep books like this coming.

Summary: A Satisfying Sequel to Welcome to My Planet
Comment: I brought this book with me on a recent vacation and finished it within a few days. I was excited to learn more about "Shanny" and was enjoying every minute of it until things took an unexpected and somewhat disturbing turn. I found the second half of this book to be almost incompatable with the first half but felt very satisfied in the end. When I finished reading, I turned the book into my hotel's book bin and saw that it was picked up by someone else right away. I hope to hear from Shannon again soon.
