MORNING

CALL

Laughing Through Life One Call at a Time

by LaShonya Ensley

Every morning, Simone picks up the phone. And every morning, the chaos begins. From brisket bought behind a gas station to sequined jumpsuits at corporate dinners — this is a love letter to the women who survive everyday life by calling the one person who will always pick up.

About the Book

Every Call Tells a Story

Simone is fifty-five years old, living in Atlanta, and she has earned her peace. She starts every morning with a cup of coffee — and a ringing phone. On the other end: her sister Nikki B, who once bought thirty-six pounds of brisket from a man behind a gas station. Her best friend Alexis, who spent three chapters losing a battle with North Carolina infrastructure. Her friend Marcia, who stored her phone in the microwave to outsmart a hacker.

That Morning Call is funny, warm, and completely real. It is a book about friendship, sisterhood, and the sacred ritual of the morning phone call.
