About this listen

A debut novel about luck and love, and winning a sweepstakes, with a cast of characters who will charm listeners. The Home-Sweet-Home Network has just announced this year's lucky winner of a brand-new, fully loaded dream home: Janine Brown of Cedar Falls, Iowa. For Janine "Janey" Brown, hearing her name called on the TV has the hallmarks of one of her aunt Midge's hare-brained plans designed to bring Janey into a world outside the one she once shared with her fiance. Janey, however, is reluctant to give up the safety and sanctity she finds in her tiny kitchen, submerging her anxiety and grief in the pursuit of the perfect pot-au-feu.

Meanwhile, across town, Janine "Nean" Brown just knows that this house is her destiny. Good fortune took its sweet time showing up in her life, but better late than never. And now that it's here, the house promises an escape from the latest in her revolving door of crappy jobs and drunk boyfriends. This house will turn her into someone the world sees, instead of the bedraggled girl who others look past without a thought.

Both Janine Browns head for Christmas Cove, Maine, to claim the prize they both rightfully think is theirs. When their lives and personalities intersect, however, they discover that more than just a million-dollar dream home awaits them at the water’s edge. These three women (oh yes, Aunt Midge comes along for the ride!) arrive at their newfound mansion only to uncover what exactly it means to truly be "home."

Filled with wit and charm, The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck Lane is Kelly Harms's enchanting and heartfelt debut - a testament to the many, many ways love finds us, the power of a home-cooked meal, and just what it means to be lucky.

Very much a Hallmark movie

Really sweet, easy-listen in a small town with kind people (except the boyfriend, in the beginning, is not kind in the slightest). It’s pretty good, but don’t expect a masterpiece. And by the way, there is little to no swearing. I am not sure what that reviewer who said there was swearing was talking about.

Easy read, fast plot

Enjoyable story about relationships with implied depth. The romantic relationships are hasty and therefore seem unlikely.

This book made my heart wiggle its toes!

I love the way Kelly Harms writes. The way she has her characters describe things often has me laughing out loud. I’ve listened to “You Can Thank Me Later” at least twice. I am sure I will listen to this book again (especially since it only took me a few days-I couldn’t stop) and I am off to buy another one of Kelly’s books. I enjoyed both narrators, too!

Must read

So witty and yet makes you think! Could not have enjoyed it more!! Each character has a secret and a need to just be themselves.

Good, light, funny

I loved listening to this book because the narrators were very entertaining and I could almost picture the faces of the characters!

I loved there was humor mixed in with the story. It was a nice change from all the serious books I've been reading lately.

This book needs a good psychiatrist.

This is an odd one. It’s emotionally difficult. Some bad things get far less attention than they ought. The main characters should be in therapy, seriously. The premise is terribly illogical. The food waste bothered me. My mom “couldn’t get into it”. So there you have it. Meh.

The most amazing narrators… Truly voice actors

This was such a fun book, great characters and I love the way it was written. But the most fun where the narrator’s. They truly were talented voice actors. I especially loved the narrator for Neen.

Cute-brain candy

You don’t have to think much. Its enjoyable and sweet, predictable and a perfect companion when you have tons of stuff to do and don’t need to concentrate too hard. The narrators were very good.
