Former, award-winning newspaper writer Kristen Cook wrote This. — and now there's That. America's Arizona's Tucson's Her husband's sweetheart is back at it with a second collection of humor essays. Goofy and relatable, the wordslinger and three-time Dancing With the Stars champ* tackles dumbestic life like a modern-day Erma Bombeck. That. is fun and fluffy, the book equivalent of cozy slippers ... for your eyes. Yeah, we're not quite sure how that works either. That. is more than just a book of funny stories, though, it's also a fundraiser. Proceeds will be donated to the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona's COVID-19 Response Funds, which provides general operating support to nonprofits serving Arizona's most vulnerable residents in Pima and Santa Cruz counties. So no need to feel guilty that you're slothing around reading, you're doing good. Yay you! *Cook is a terrible dancer and has no rhythm.
A former award-winning newspaper writer and current mother of three, Kristen Cook lives in Tucson and writes a blog — therealkristencook.com — that focuses on finding the ha-ha in the humdrum. She is the author of This. and That, nonfiction collections of humor essays about life and family and shopping for throw pillows. It's humor with heart.
Thanks, Kristen, for another great “sweatpants for the soul” book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it in almost entirely one sitting. Lots of LOL moments!!!
