The World According to Kate: A Humorous Look at Everyday Life
It’s not often that I am given the chance to review two books by the same author within a couple of months of each. However, some authors are wonderfully prolific and the ideas and words just form and tumble out into books with exciting regularity. Katy More is one of these. This 47-year-old Moreton Bay resident, mother, author, editor and columnist has produced her second book, which promises to be as thought-provoking as her first, which was a revealing expose of bipolar disorder, entitled Consistently Inconsistent.
However, her new 95-page e-book is far from the first book’s subject matter. The World According to Kate: The Candid Thoughts of an Ordinary Housewife consists of 31 previously published newspaper articles covering a wide variety of subjects – everything from bad drivers, camping, ‘60 km couch potato, ‘The Man Code’ to the intriguingly titled ‘Mummy Mafia’!
She has an open writing style, which is easy to read and will generate quite a few chuckles. A good book to have at your bedside on those predicted wearisome hot summer nights.
The book can be purchased on sale for $9.95 at www.katesworld.com.au
