Very Hilarious

It was very hilarius that The Author as a Teenager was so ashamed to wear her Girdle & Seamed stockings to School trying to hide the back of her legs Etc. so her school mates won,t make fun of her seamed stockings. So in order not to made fun of again that way She would first of all Enter The School with the Mother approved outfit, Enter The Ladies Rest Roon then in her Bathroon stall take off first her Nylons, roll them up to a Ball, Stash them into her Coat Pocket then, Be Free, But at the beginning of her classes her Girdle would get lowered to her thighs with those Uncomfortable garter snaps bugging her thighs so at her next visit to The ladies Room The Author would pull off her Girdle & roll it up & stashed it in her purse. Then when School got done for the day then she would go back to The Ladies Room & put her Approved Girdle & stockings back before she took The School Bus Home so her Mother would not find out. The Author did the above routine for the next 3 School years after that. I personally hope that they will someday soon make a full length movie version of the above story for like I said before That Story was so Hilarious.

A Gem of a Book from the Gem State

I had the honor of hearing Marianne Love read chapters of this book as she was writing them and shared in her glee as it was published. She writes such vibrant, wild tales of her youth that one can't help but be absorbed into the book and want to keep reading. This book has all the flavor of "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and more. It's a shame this book never spent time on the bestseller lists for all the world to discover.
