This is now. <strong><em>Trailer Trashed</em></strong> is a hilarious and heartbreaking collection of essays on one broad theme&#8212;Hollis&#8217;s relationships with her offbeat sisters, her precocious daughter, her bizarre friends, and the people they love.

    <body><![CDATA[Another great book from Hollis Gillespie. I love an author who can make you laugh one minute and then say something so touching you get goosebumps. Being from Atlanta, I also like that I am familiar with the areas/stores/restaurants Hollis writes about.

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Once upon a time, Hollis Gillespie was ashamed about having a hard-drinking, trailer-salesman dad and a missile-making mom with broken dreams of being a beautician. That was then. This is now. <strong><em>Trailer Trashed</em></strong> is a hilarious and heartbreaking collection of essays on one broad theme&#8212;Hollis&#8217;s relationships with her offbeat sisters, her precocious daughter, her bizarre friends, and the people they love. Brimming with irreverent, side-splitting observations on life that will wow fans of Augusten Burroughs and Sarah Vowell, <strong><em>Trailer Trashed</em></strong> follows an offbeat single mom through the raucous journey of her life, from hauling a safe to Nicaragua for her sister to selling a television series in Los Angeles for herself.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Once upon a time, Hollis Gillespie was ashamed about having a hard-drinking, trailer-salesman dad and a missile-making mom with broken dreams of being a beautician. That was then. This is now. <strong><em>Trailer Trashed</em></strong> is a hilarious and heartbreaking collection of essays on one broad theme&#8212;Hollis&#8217;s relationships with her offbeat sisters, her precocious daughter, her bizarre friends, and the people they love. Brimming with irreverent, side-splitting observations on life that will wow fans of Augusten Burroughs and Sarah Vowell, <strong><em>Trailer Trashed</em></strong> follows an offbeat single mom through the raucous journey of her life, from hauling a safe to Nicaragua for her sister to selling a television series in Los Angeles for herself.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>
