CHARLOTTE FIGG TAKES OVER PARADISE by Joyce MagninFrom Amazon.com:
Newly widowed Charlotte Figg purchases a double-wide trailer sight unseen and moves to the Paradise Trailer Park with her dog Lucky. Unfortunately, neither the trailer nor Paradise are what Charlotte expected. Her trailer is a ramshackle old place in need of major repair, and the people of Paradise are harboring more secrets than Bayer has aspirin. Charlotte's new friend Rose Tattoo learns that Charlotte played softball and convinces her to rally the women of Paradise into a team. Reluctant at first, Charlotte warms to the notion and is soon coaching the Paradise Angels. Meanwhile, Charlotte discovers that the manager of Paradise, Fergus Wrinkel, abuses his wife Suzy. Charlotte sets out to find a way to save Suzy from Fergus and in the process comes to a difficult realization about her own painful marriage.
This was another free book that I downloaded for the Kindle. And another one that was worth about what I paid for it. Not a bad book, exactly - it had some funny moments. There were some strange characters - a woman covered with tattoos, a little person, and a man with one arm. A trailer with a huge hand planted in the middle of the front yard. And a baby being born in a most unusual setting.
Not great literature, but a way to pass a quiet afternoon.

Someone just recommended this book to me (and told me it was a Kindle freebie) so I downloaded it. Not sure when I'll get to read it but it sounds a little quirky.
