Fringe Florida in Demand

My friend, Cathy Wos, a Hillsborough County Librarian, shared that there are 10 requested holds for my book Fringe Florida, and it’s not even in stock yet.

What others are saying…

"This picaresque slideshow definitely has its ear to the ground for the weird, wacky, and wonderful that is now our peninsula’s chief cash crop. If you’re looking for the outer orbits of America, come to Florida, and if you seek the Sunshine State’s funky-drumbeat fringe, you can do no better than Lynn Waddell." --Tim Dorsey, New York Times best-selling author

"Waddell takes readers to Florida’s wild side, where strippers, swingers, bikers, exotic animals, and carnies enjoy sun-kissed lives in America’s strangest state."--Trevor Aaronson, author of The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI’s Manufactured War on Terrorism

"Lynn Waddell’s riveting you-are-there reporting lives at the intersection where Florida’s wacky subcultures and seamy undersides meet up. When you read this book, make sure you’re standing over carpet--that way you won’t hurt your jaw from dropping it so many times."--Craig Pittman, author of The Scent of Scandal: Greed, Betrayal, and the World’s Most Beautiful Orchid
