ADVANCE PRAISE FOR GOOD KARMA
“Christina Kelly’s heartwarming novel peels away the layers of the Seven Oaks retirement community to reveal the many secrets roiling below its surface. A wonderful cast of characters—including the chatty spirit of a recently departed resident, a matchmaking Great Dane, and a mysterious woman with a penchant for trespassing—adds up to a surprising, wise, and romantic debut!”
—Meg Donohue, USA Today bestselling author of Dog Crazy and How to Eat a Cupcake
“A charming debut where southern-spiced humor, quirky characters, a disembodied spirit, and furry friends come together in a story that proves a retirement community can be anything but boring.”
—Beth Hoffman, New York Times bestselling author of Saving CeeCee Honeycutt and Looking for Me
“Quirky and entertaining. A cleverly written reminder that it’s never too late to fall in love or become the person you’re meant to be.”
—Wendy Wax, USA Today bestselling author of One Good Thing
“Humans and canines alike will delight and entertain readers in Kelly’s quirky debut. . . .Fans of Dorothea Benton Frank and Mary Kay Andrews will enjoy this witty and relevant novel filled with peculiar yet charming characters, and even more charming dogs.”
—Booklist
