Blog Tour Sign Up: Getting Skinny by Monique Domovitch
Owning a restaurant is as crazy for Nicky Landry as an alcoholic owning a bar. But despite the fact that she has to cram herself into a body shaper like an over-stuffed cannelloni in order to look somewhat decent in a dress, life is pretty good; she’s about to throw the party of the year for her graduating doctor boyfriend, Rob, who, by the way, she’s pretty sure is going to propose.
Well, life was good – until her boyfriend’s new girlfriend showed up at the party and, after ordering Rob to get his stuff out of her house and get lost, she finds him face-up with her $200 Chroma knife sticking right out of his cheating heart.
As the prime suspect, Nicky is already in plenty of trouble, but thanks to her well-meaning friend, who convinces her to try and clear her name on her own, her problems only multiply. She’s convinced she can solve the murder – if only she can figure out who the skinny person she’d seen Rob walking away with after the party was. Too bad he or she might find – and kill – her first.

CLP Blog Tours Book Review: The Wisdom of Hair by …
Kim Boykin is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and The Wisdom of Hair. What a charming little read! The book is set in 1983 and follows the life of Zora Adams, who leaves her home in the mountains on her nineteenth birthday to escape her man-loving alcoholic of a mother. A teacher helps her get enrolled at the Davenport School of Beauty and her own place to live. Zora befriends the boisterous Sara Jane Farquhar almost immediately, and is accepted in Sara’s prestigious family as one of their own. She also falls hard for Winston Sawyer, a young widower who is forgetting all the pain with his excessive drinking. Zora learns lessons during her time at the Davenport School of Beauty not only about hair – but about love, friendship, family … and forgiveness.
The Wisdom of Hair was a cute read but also deeply explored the subject of self-discovery. Readers meet Zora when she is pretty low in her life, and watch her as she slowly becomes less and less shy and finds her backbone. The beauty school sections were a hoot to read about, and the whole novel really embodied what I envisioned the ‘80’s to be like. I adored the friendship between Zora and Sara, and Sara’s character in general was so fun to journey with. Sometimes I felt a little disengaged with the characters, in particular with Zora and Winston’s relationship, I think just because it is so very complicated. Sometimes I just wondered what in the world she saw in the man – but I guess we can’t choose who we love, can we? Overall, a very fun and spirited chick lit book!
