Everyone knows soaps aren’t real life. Or are they? Just in
time for gift-giving season, here is You Know Your Life
Is a Soap Opera If . . .
Fast, funny, and far from implausible, this charming little
book shares
all the truisms soap fans will recognize from their favorite
storylines
-- and from life. Things like: --Everybody has
secrets. Everybody else knows them. --Be kind to
strangers. They are likely to be your family. --No
former spouse ever really dies. --Never talk to yourself
-- some scheming bitch will overhear and use it against
you. --If you marry for money again and again, it won’t
buy you happiness -- but you will have a great wardrobe.
--Don’t reject a man because he’s evil -- he could develop
into a (smoldering, enigmatic, and/or brooding) romantic
hero. --You’d be robbing yourself of the full courtroom
experience if you were not threatened with contempt at least
once.
--Okay, the church burned down, the cake exploded, and your
father was
arrested for embezzlement while walking you down the aisle .
. . Stop
crying like this is the only wedding you’re ever going to
have. Filled
with knowing asides and the affection that comes with an
intimate
knowledge of the genre, it’s sure to top soap opera fans’ wish
list.
