My Thoughts on Judy in Disguise

I’ve enjoyed reading books by this author. Her Weather Girls series was fun and charming. She gives us a historical fiction-type novel from the not-so-distant history that brings characters to life and often makes me giggle.

This book is the first in a new series that is a spin-off of the weather girls. I enjoyed reading it. The characters reminded me a bit of a younger version of me who was very much a people pleaser. And I have some first-hand knowledge and have dealt with manipulative people as well. This book had wonderful characters who pulled me into their story and made me eager to find out what was going to happen next!

More from Jennifer

Have you ever been to a party and had so much fun you hated to leave? That’s how I felt when I finished up The Weather Girls. I fell in love with the characters and the memory lane saunter through my hometown of Kokomo, Indiana.

Then, chatting with a good writing friend, I realized I could have a spin-off series where Ferguson House, the business, and of course the cardinal and the sycamore tree all play a part.

The friends from the original series could drop by the stories, but these would be stand-alone. I also wanted to make these stories fun as well as heartwarming.

Then I had the question–where to get the story inspirations?

The same place I got it for Sunny, Stormy, and Windy—the oldies station.

That’s when I Googled song titles from the 60s with girls’ names. When “Judy in Disguise” popped up, I knew it had to be the first of the new Weather Girls Wedding Shoppe and Venue series. The story ideas came fast and furious.

I am so excited about this new series, and I hope you will be too as familiar song titles get new plot points. Join me at the Weather Girls Wedding Shoppe and Venue.
