I have read a couple of her books, and they are a good light read. Are her books stand alone books? Any of hers you would recommend?

I've read: Summer Rental, Savannah Blues, and Deep Dish. Liked all of them. Light, summer beach reads.  I would like to read Ladies' Night. Amanda |

I just picked up Ladies Night at Costco yesterday. It will be my first one of her books.

I have always enjoyed her books, like a few other authors, her books are "summer" for me. Her newest one, Save the Date was pretty good. About a florist trying to beat the odds in Savannah. Fun read. |

I like her books too. Ladies Night is good, as are Spring Fever, Summer Rental and The Fixer-Upper. They're not highbrow, but they're well-written and fun.

I love Mary Kaye Andrews!! Her books are so fun. I've read them all, a few more than once. My favorite is her older stuff like Little Bitty Lies, Savannah Breeze and Hissy Fit. The Fixer Upper was good too!

I really enjoy her books. I am going to read her new one as soon as I finish reading Jennifer Weiner's latest.

Edie - I've read every book she's put out and love them all! Yes, they are stand alone books. Great reads for the beach! She also has a cottage on Tybee Island that she rents out thru Mermaid Cottages - I'd love to stay there.

I love her books---the stand alone novels and the ones that feature characters named Weezie and Bebe.
She also has a great series of books under her real name, Kathy Hogan Trocheck.
We stayed at her Breeze Inn house on Tybee Island a few summers back, and actually met her and her husband when they had to stop by the house and get some things out of their shed. They were both very sweet.

I've read several of her books and enjoyed them. They are light and fun.
I didn't know that she had books under another name. I'll have to check those out, too. Thanks, janeliz. How was the Breeze Inn?

The house was great, IAmUnoriginal. It's a terrific location (easy walk or bike ride to the beach), and she's done a great job decorating it and making it really homey. I'd definitely rent it again.

I like her books too!! I need to read her latest 2-3.
They are definitely great summer reads and pretty "light" but not stupid. Know what i mean?

Love her books! I really like the ones with Callahan Garrity as the main character that she writes as Kathy Hogan Trocheck. Callahan Garrity reminds me of Stephanie Plum in Janet Evanovich's books.
