In her richly drawn debut novel, Mary Monroe brings to life the relationship between two ladies from opposite attributes of the monitor—and the shattering event that changes their lives forever.
At the heart of the story is Annette Goode, a timid, awkward, over weight child who will keep a terrible technique. Mr. Boatwright, the boarder her hardworking mom has taken in, abuses her daily. Frightened and ashamed, Annette withdraws into a world of literature and food.
But the summertime Annette transforms thirteen, something extraordinary happens: Rhoda Nelson decides her as a pal. Dazzling, large Rhoda, who's everything Annette is not—stunning, sleek, and worldly—welcomes Annette in to the heart of her eccentric family, which include her attractive and dignified dad; her lovely, delicate, “Muh'Dear;” her brooding, dangerous brother Jock; and her multi-colored white family—half-crazy Uncle Johnny, sultry Aunt Lola, and daunting, surly Granny Goose.
With Rhoda's help, Annette survives adolescence and blossoms as a woman. However when her beautiful closest friend makes a stunning confession in regards to a horrific childhood criminal offense, Annette's world won't be the same.
Placed on the avenues, porches and parlors of 1960s and 1970 Ohio, God Don't Like Ugly sparkles with clear-eyed wit and uncompromising credibility. Readers will see this remarkable new novel packed with laughter, motivation, and pure enjoyment.
