It was just what I needed after some of the books I had been readding. I recommend this for anyone that just needs to laugh a little bit! It was laugh out loud funny throughout the book. ( ) The title is very funny, the book not so much. It does have it's moments but was not laugh out loud funny for me. Maye moves to a small town named Spaulding which is known for making sewer pipes. She has moved there because her husband has been offered a job at the local college. Maye finds it hard to make new friends there and goes to great lengths to obtaining them. She joins a book club which is not quite what she thinks when it comes to Gothic novels. Goes on a friend date to have her friend get drunk and belligerent in the restaurant and even follows people in the grocery store to see if they like the same foods. But it seems that her friend search may be over when she learns of the town's local beauty pageant. I had read so many reviews about how this was the funniest writer on earth. Well, I wasn't that impressed. There were amusing segments, but I never laughed out loud. And the book was boring until Ruby Spicer came into the story. But even after that it really didn't go anywhere. Two stars for Mickey, the piano playing, singing pimp dog. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Action-Adventure Club is a rollicking tale of small-town peculiarity, dark secrets, and one extraordinary beauty pageant. When her husband is offered a post at a small university, Maye is only too happy to pack up and leave the relentless Phoenix heat for the lush green quietude of Spaulding, Washington. While she loves the odd little town, there is one thing she didnâ??t anticipate: just how heartbreaking it would be leaving her friends behind. And when youâ??re a childless thirtysomething freelance writer who works at home, making new friends can be quite a challenge. After a series of false starts nearly gets her exiled from town, Maye decides that her last chance to connect with her new neighbors is to enter the annual Sewer Pipe Queen Pageant, a kooky but dead-serious local tradition open to contestants of all ages and genders.
