Book Review: A CRAZY OPTIMIST by Anne Greene






A CRAZY OPTIMIST by Anne Greene
Sparkle lives in NY, 5 months now and makes a living as a pet taxidemist. Work is getting hard to find so she posts an ad on CraigsList as a professional Maid for Honor and gets lots of work.
Nick is her friend and she visits him at his place and they talk. She talks him into escorting her to the events and the comedy part of this is hilarious. Won't spoil it by telling you the events that occured but I had tesrs in my eyes if that's any indication of how funny it all was. Then when you think it can't get any funnier, it does.
She realizes she has to break off from Nick because of his outlook on life.
She owes him a picnic and love where they end up and all the new things I learn-so precious because my father and grandfather were nurseymen.
She goes on with her life without stopping in on Nick and while exercising she needs to protect herself like no other time.  Terror of the fire I found threating and wondered what I'd do in her place.
Religion is a large part of this story also as she relies on God in many instinces.
She only wants friendship with him because of her past-she does tell him in time and she knows they can never be together.
Very few characters, great story to see how each reacts to different situations.  Other works by the author are highlighted at the end.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
