Funeral Potatoes, the Novel, released in February, 2012 by Covenant Communications, is a hilarious look at LDS family life. And, as grits are to Southerners, and escargot are to the French, Funeral Potatoes are to Latter-day Saints. They bind generations together and show up at most of our important events.
Hilton's "laugh-out-loud writing" is back as she introduces new characters-- a wayward brother, a perfectionistic sister, and a family caught in the middle.
