Crazy Southern Irish Gal: Two Book Bundle
- 322 pages
Overall Content Rating: Parents Strongly Cautioned PG-13
This is a humorous adult memoir about middle-aged life, marriage, parenting, careers, and embarrassing episodes, told in a chatty tone parents may read as aimed at grown readers more than teens. Language is a steady part of the comedy: exclamations, teasing insults, and slang throughout everyday stories rather than in a single dark stretch. Content notes for cautious parents include recurring profanity; brief body and underwear humor including implied marital nudity and jokes about breasts and exams; a small LGBTQ-themed joke in passing; and a childhood injury with blood that is remembered vividly but not prolonged torture or horror. There is no indication in the supplied material of explicit on-page sex, sexual assault, or graphic ongoing violence.

Profanity Moderate
100The narrator's comic memoir uses steady mild-to-medium swearing and teasing insults across many chapters—travel, parenting, work, sports rivalries, and arguments—usually for humor rather than menace. Stronger words appear occasionally in surprise or frustration; crude anatomical slang shows up in self-deprecating asides.

About this book
Humor writer Kimberly “Kimba” Dalferes dishes on a wide variety of topics–from days of her youth spent blissfully on the shores of Florida’s beaches to menopause and empty nests–in her nonfiction collection Crazy Southern Irish Gal Two-Book Bundle. In both titles: I Was In Love With a Short Man Once and Magic Fishing Panties, Dalferes’ crazy Southern Irish gal perspective inspires her illustrations of life’s quirky twists and turns. Together, these books offer descriptive and colorful essays on subjects such as getting a tattoo in midlife, unique uses for kitty litter, handling a rabid bat, public speaking gone wrong, and naked hot-tubbing in Vegas. Dalferes skillfully weaves what at first glance may appear to be dissimilar themes into a tapestry that invokes her life’s motto: live out loud, laugh often, and ‘occasionally’ drink tequila.
