Pink Flamingoed — Steve Demaree

An author inherits his grandparents home and plans to move in, hibernate for the winter, and write his next bestseller. But five minutes after he arrives, some of his neighbors ring his doorbell and his life is never the same game. It is much better. The book is full of humor and quirky characters who have bonded and spend much time together, celebrating anything they can think of to celebrate, which causes readers to comment that this is the neighborhood in which they want to live. Pink Flamingoed is the first book in the Aylesford Place series.
