Lately I’ve been catching up on all of my paranormal books that have been sitting on my TBR list and I’m sure that most of you can agree that if you spend too long reading one genre you have a tendency to get burned out. Love, Suburban Style was exactly the book I needed to pull me out of the rut I felt I was falling in to.

This is a definite feel-good story with tons of humor and teenage angst thrown in to keep the reader totally enthralled the entire time.

After 20 years in New York, Meg has decided its time to move herself and her daughter back to her roots. But Suburbia has definitely changed since she left so long ago. Now, not only does Meg have the latte drinking, sushi eating, stay-at-home-with-even-though-you-have-a-nannie suburban moms making her welcome home not so great, but she also has to deal with the fact that there is a ghost taking up residence in the house that she just bought. As if things weren’t hard enough for her already, she’s managed to move in next door to Sam, the guy she fell in love with as a teenager.

Ms. Markham did a stellar job writing a love story between two wonderful characters. Meg and Sam’s back and forth relationship is more than enough to keep you turning the page. And the secondary characters in Love, Suburban Style are just icing on the cake.
