Thanks Rainbowheart.

Celeste is still looking for this book:

"1920s Mama’s boy brings wanton wife home to straight-laced Christian family

I’m trying to find this God-awful book I read as a young teen in the mid-1970s. Maybe published between 1960-1976? Maybe earlier.

The plot is about this syrupy-sweet American Christian family in the 1920s-1930s. The oldest son returns home (from college, I think) with a very modern wife. This woman utterly shocks the family with her wanton ways, such as wearing nail polish and dancing to jazz music.

There is a younger sister and a mother. I’m not sure about the rest of the family characters.

This book is probably out of print, but I’m wondering if it rings any bells with anyone."

Celeste, you started a thread for this book on December 17, 2022, so I'm closing this duplicate thread. Please continue here - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Glad you found your book, Chanel.

I copied some plot details to the topic header, as an example of the information we need at the top of the page.

Vishwajeet, I added a few book details to the topic header, removed the spoiler, and added a spoiler alert. Feel free to edit it.

Alanna, roughly what year did you read this book? A range of years is fine.

Is this book for teens or adults?

I tried to remove the spoilers from the topic header. Feel free to edit it.

What is the father's job?
Where is the boy's mother?

Can you rewrite the header without spoilers, and include the genre? Just post a comment with a new description or edit the header (if you're using the Desktop version of the website).

Lotje, how much of the topic header is a spoiler (re: "Kidnapping a girl...")? We need to remove spoilers from the header and add a spoiler alert.

About what year did you read this book?

What's the genre (which we need to add to the header) - e.g., adult thriller?

Patnel, what is the story's time period?
Which region of the U.S.? A major or mid-size city?

Who is the main character(s)?

Penny, did she travel in an ocean liner by herself? Why is she alone?

I copied book details to the topic header. Feel free to edit it.

Debbie, please note you can bump your own thread 30+ days after the last comment in the thread - because this group is so large. If you remember new details, you can add them at any time.

How far into the story do you learn her boyfriend set up the robbery? Is this a spoiler? (in which case, we'll remove it from the header)
