review:
'The Clancys of Queens: A Memoir' by Tara Clancy is a feisty look at growing up in multiple houses by an original voice.

Tara "Scooter" Clancy tells all kinds of stories in this book. She talks about hanging around her foul-mouthed and harsh Italian grandmother. She hangs out with her mother and her mother's new husband in the Hamptons. She spends time with her dad and his oddly named friends in his favorite local bar. Through it all there are fights and friendships and finding out who you really are.

The stories are feisty, funny and full of life. Tara has a knack for bringing her personal stories to life in a way that makes the reader feel like they are sitting across the table from her drinking a beer or eating one of her grandmother's zeppoles. I really enjoyed reading this one.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Crown Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
