"This is a strange, but entertaining book. It was quite funny and very strangely written with different P.O.V.s all over the place. I don't know that I would read another book by this author though everything was well-written. The characters were certainly ridiculous, but I don't know how well it ended - some storylines weren't wrapped up enough. I don't think I would recommend it either... It was just missing something..."
"There's only one dog in it, not negatively portrayed, so I don't get the title, perhaps for lack of something better. 12 houses on a run-down southern street occupied primarily but not entirely by antiques selling same. The neighborhood gossip with her journal entries is amusing, eventually tiresome. There's enough stuff going on for a whole set of "Desperate Housewives"."
"Nearly abandoned... couldn't understand Coomer's voice. Certainly NOT the Coomer of Beachcoming ... or Pocketful of Names. However, the different story-telling-style made me curious. What WAS the story??? Well, about half-way through, I was laughing out loud! Chuckling at Effie, marveling at the secrets untold and interpretations and surprises I learned! I compromised with the 3-star rating."
