Lisa Scottline is well-known for her mysteries, but she and daughter Francesca have also written several humorous essay/memoirs as a mother-daughter team, comparable to Erma

True Stories and Confessions helped lighten the mood with their characteristic self-deprecating take on everything from dealing with rodent control, diets, relationships/dating and family.
