Patty Jane from Patty Jane's House of Curl is back in this book by Lorna Landvik. In Once In A Blue Moon Lodge Patty Jane's daughter, Nora, is the main character and the story goes along for twenty years. Four generations of family members struggle and succeed in Minneapolis, northern Minnesota (where the lodge is located) and in Norway. There is a good quantity of dialogue in this story some of which flows smoothly and a small amount is so corny it made me cringe. The story is about real people with real problems. I found it to be a nice distraction from my own problems.
