Fantastic short read!

*Received as a Goodreads giveaway* I wholeheartedly enjoyed this book! We get a glimpse into the life of a wonderful woman named Greta and the light-hearted antics of living in a retirement home from the view of her favorite son-in-law. He touched on religion throughout the book with such levity, it was honestly refreshing! Beautifully written!

This book will have you laughing and teary eyed. What an adventure Mark and Janell have with Greta I really like reading about the red chair, also about Ruby at first I didn’t understand why Greta was not friendly with Ruby, not giving anything away. Than the pictures heist this was funny to me. I believe you will enjoy this book as I do. I will reread this book again
I give My Favorite Mother InLaw a 5 Star Review

This book is a gift!
I had to phone my own mother-in-law after I read this book and tell her all about it.
What a witty and warm (and brave!) dive into the daunting dynamics of extended family!
This story celebrates how unexpected relationships shape our lives.

I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway. I like this author's story telling and his problem solving skills when it came to his family taking care of his mother-in-law as she neared the end of her life and her fight with dementia.
