Forget Perfect! Snellville Author Lisa Earle McLeod

I found this news story about suburban angst and found a famous Snellvillian who is so famous I hadn't heard of her yet. But that appears to have been my loss. I know, I know, I have been living under a rock. I'm going to rectify that in a minute by finding out more. I love the book titles, sounds like something totally up my alley.
