God's Country Club: A Novel

Rating:
Summary: Balance, Love and Peace
Review: Gail Donohoe Storey has done a perfect job of describing the life of a yankee transplanted into the heart of Texas. Her eye for detail about the unique Texas class distinctions is dead-on. Any Texan, former Texan or wanna-be-Texan will love the description of the debutante ball. And any book that includes a scene about Chuy's margaritas is going to get five stars from me. Obviously, the setting was my favorite part of this charming story of love and family. By and large the characters were well-drawn, and the plot was entertaining. The title has nothing to do with the book - just a cutesy phrase unwisely appended to an otherwise entertaining read.

Summary: Very funny,entertaining,90's relationship story.Laugh aloud.
Review: Ms.Storey has created unforgettable characters in the very contemporary relationship of Colleen and Gabriel. The family of origin dramas, the stepmother crisis', and Colleen's attempt to explain to her Yankee boyfriend how Texas won The War, all add up to a hilarious and touching page turner. Read Storey's first book, "The Lord's Motel" for further adventures of her quirky characters

Summary: Another good read
Review: This book kept me up all night. I read it straight through. A wonderful laugh but rings sad and true underneath the humor. Applause for this strong charater and her place in Texas. And bravo for putting up with the mother-in-law.

Summary: Storey's nailed Texas
Review: With sharp eyes, ears and pen, Gail Donahue Storey has captured the essence of personal relationshipsin the 90s and even better, the weirdnesses of Texas social scenes, old and new. This is a very witty, satirical book, a glorious romp I read non-stop. Can't wait for the next one!
