Miss Dreamsville and the Lost Heiress of Collier County is Southern fiction at its best! Set in 1964 in Collier County, Florida, we meet a most entertaining and diverse group of characters. Dora Witherspoon was summoned by ex-stripper/alligator hunter Dolores Simpson to return immediately to Collier County to deal with Dora's ex-husband Darryl and his proposed development in the Collier County everglades. Dora teams up with her other book club members to come up with the best way to stop Darryl in his tracks and many adventures ensue. We also get the chance to see the characters struggle with how best to handle the civil rights movement and how the movement tracked through the South.
I loved the characters in the book and have already put the first book Miss Dreamsville and the Collier County Women's Literary Society on my to-read list. This book would make a wonderful film and I think book clubs would also enjoy it.
I received this book from Atria Books through Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
