How Lulu Lost Her Mind

This book y’all...It has me howling with laughter! Seriously almost peed my pants!🤣

Rachel Gibson is my kind of author, and I’m devouring her book. This story is heartwarming, heartfelt and laugh-out-loud hysterical.

Gibson has also found a way to take a topic, Alzheimer’s, that is utterly terrifying, and humanized it in such a way that no other author has done before.

This is a book I’m not putting down till I turn the last page! I also drug @mamas_top_shelf into reading this with me last night. Her amazing husband even went out to grab this from the bookstore for her at the last minute!

𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Lou Ann Hunter’s mother has always had a passionate nature, which explains why she’s been married five times and spooned enough male patients to be ousted from three elderly care facilities. She also has Alzheimer’s, which is why she wants to spend the rest of her life surrounded by childhood memories at Sutton Hall, her family’s decrepit plantation home in Louisiana.

Lou Ann, a.k.a. Lulu the Love Guru, has built an empire preaching sex, love, and relationship advice to the women of America—mostly by defying the example her mother has set for her. But with her mom suddenly in need of a fulltime caretaker, Lou Ann reluctantly agrees to step out of the spotlight and indulge her mother’s wishes.

Upon her arrival at Sutton Hall, Lou Ann discovers that very little functions as it should—least of all her mother’s mind. And as she adjusts to this new and inevitably temporary dynamic with the help of a local handyman and a live-in nurse, she is forced to confront the reality that neither her nor her mother’s future is going according to plan.
