A hoot! Being 'Grits' (girl raised in the south) myself, I was a little skeptical of the narration when I first began listening to this book.....I thought the narrator's voice was a little too soft & not quite southern enough; but as the book went on, the vocal characterization was perfect. This book is just as entertaining as SPQ's Book of Love and leaves you with some similar words of wisdom and clearly sensible advice. A lot of fun!
This has got to be one of the funniest and best read books on the market. So often the author does not do as well at reading as with writing, but this is an exceptional exception! She is so very funny and lovable and delightful and real. I had read the book but enjoyed it every bit as much in the hearing. I drive about 30 minutes to work and found myself laughing out loud often and thinking, "what a great way to start a day!" It is very irreverant, yet very acceptable to my fairly conservative ears. I loved it and have shared it with many of my friends, even friends at church! Thanks, KS
This book, which I would never have THOUGHT of reading had it not been recommended by a friend, just flat cracked me up! Trust me, you have to LISTEN to it, just reading it wouldn't be nearly as much fun. Jill Conner Browne, reading in her definitive Sweet Potato Queen accent and intonations and pronunciations, make a kinda funny book into a real treat! It's fluff, sure; but it's wonderful fluff! Treat yourself!
