Mother Knows Best reminded me of a screwball comedy. Lucy and Ethel would have been right at home (if you do not get this reference you need to watch more late night television). I just thought there was too much nonsense going on. One example is Margie's daughter, Elsie acting like a dog (goes by Fifi, wears a collar, drinks water out of a bowl on the floor, and will only eat white food). Husband was caught sleeping with a transvestite named Selena S. Mother Knows Best is just not my type of book. If you enjoy this type of comedy, then you will love reading Mother Knows Best. The mystery was extremely simple and easy to figure out. I give Mother Knows Best 3 out of 5 stars. The novel is an easy and quick read. Mother Knows Best can be enjoyed without having read the first book in the series.
I received a complimentary copy of Mother Knows Best from NetGalley (and the publisher) in exchange for an honest evaluation of the novel.
