Very engrossing book, couldn't put it down, read it in one sitting. I found myself forgetting I was reading a novel, felt like I was right there in the plot and part of the characters.

Absolutely beautiful story. I felt myself going on a rollercoaster of emotions right along with the characters. The writing is so down to earth, so natural, I felt myself drawn into the lives of the characters themselves.

What a page turner!!! Really super, terrific story line, well developed and realistic people, a tear jerker, but made me laugh and smile, too. Captain Brian G. Sanford, B-777, retired

I've logged thousands of hours as captain on the B-777, some of which I flew with the author of AARDVARK MEMORIES. I can say that Stout's fictional account is as real as it gets. Although I am now retired, reading this novel made me feel as if I were once again in that left seat. I highly recommend AARDVARK MEMORIES. Rose Port Townsend
I just finished reading Aardvark Memories for the 2nd time! From the first chapter I knew it would be one of those books I didn't want to end. I found myself totally wrapped up in the story, often times forgetting it was a novel, believing the people in it were real. I read as fast as I could to know more about each character and what would happen next. Thank you Lisa for your hard work!! What a great read. I can hardly wait for your next book!

"I can't stop thinking about how your character Claudia struggled to write a book while dying of breast cancer. And that her lovely friend, Lily, was able to complete the project even after Claudia's passing. Your story showed an ingenious connection between characters who shared lasting relationships. So real were the characters that they still slip into my thoughts. And that's how I know a terrific book; when months later the characters are still with me. Well done."

The book read really well and you could really submerge yourself in all the characters. We were riveted by the detail of the action in the plane event. We are waiting for your next one…

"Aardvark Memories" was great! You have a delightfully descriptive style, and since I spend a good amount of time passing through the PCH/Santa Monica/Malibu area, I felt right at home with the west coast part of the cast and felt a longing to learn about life in the Midwest with actual seasons. The characterizations were excellent, I loved them all. Great fun, and thanks so much!

Words just cannot express how wonderful I found your novel, Aardvark Memories. I just loved the unique meeting of Charlotta, Kimberly and Susan. They were very realistic and believable characters. I must tell you, too, that I shed tears when Claudia passed away. I wish you much success with your writing. You are very talented and I look forward to reading more of your work. I will be highly recommending your novel to my family, friends and flying partners.
