Frieda Weeks
I was surprised that my favorite author left hometown folks to initiate her character Dena Nordstom. However, as the novel progresses, it is obvious that Dena is looking for home as many of us are. I really liked this novel. I am a fan of Fannie since high school - about 1964-1965 when she produced her hilarious records. Being a southerner makes me feel close to whatever Fannie writes. I is a great book!


Mrs Caldwell
I'm in the middle of the book. I do enjoy Fanny Flagg's writing style. It's straight-forward and easy to read. Nothing fancy, just enjoyable.


Daila
Amazing!! best of her work yet.


Katie
I was a little confused, because the Macky and Norma were mentioned in Fried Green Tomatoes but have no connection, at least so far. (I'm not done with the book) I find it an enjoyable read, but I'm not as in love with the characters as i was in Fried Green Tomatoes.
