I was in Love with a Short Man Once by Kimberly J. Dalferes

I Was in Love with a Short Man Once: And Other Tales from a Crazy Southern Irish GalI Was in Love with a Short Man Once: And Other Tales from a Crazy Southern Irish Gal by Kimberly J Dalferes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


What were the main themes of the book? Family values, parenting and personal growth. As you grow up and become exposed to what the world has to offer, you tend to lose a little humour. This book teaches you to keep on laughing and not to take things so seriously.

Describe 2 different settings or locations. One - When she talks about Jojo. We all have that one friend who changes us forever and it was easy to relate to this chapter.
 
Two - Her experience with Mildred. Talk about taking positive thinking to a whole different level. Once again, this chapter was humourous but had its lessons for every reader.

Were you able to connect with the main character and why? Seeing that the main 'character' was the author itself, I was able to connect with her. However, because of my age and her experience, I felt like it was talking to my mum.

Which did you find more appealing, the introduction or the conclusion? Hmmm, I'm going to go for the introduction. It's a whole lot funnier at the beginning and there's more to be discovered about her life in the earlier chapters.

Why would you recommend or not recommend this book? Yes, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a good laugh and a good read.

Disclosure - I received a free book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
