I have just finished a wonderfully light and funny read that I have to tell you guys about. It is by Celia Rivenbark and if you get a chance to read this...you must...especially if you live in the South, are interested in the mystic of the South, or are a wannabe southerner. The book is a collection of hysterical essays about southern life, southernese, southern ways, and southern style. It is a combination of tales of marriage and family, a faulty Christmas toy, WT (white trash), and a day at the spa. This book is NOT for the faint at heart...there are a few cuss words....but even with them it is a delight. The chapter titles will leave you in stitches. I have finished the book so if there is an interested party out there who would love to read it....let me know and I will forward it to you.

I would love it! I am going to the beach next week and need a read. and I love southern set books!
After Leigh's done with it, I'd sure love to read it. Maybe I'll shoot Leigh an e-mail and ask her to forward it to me when she's done. It sure looks like my kind of book! Thanks for the recommendation.
I need to read this, too!!
I'd love to Kelly, send me your address. Maybe we can do a book swap. Kelly, if you will send onto Trina when you are done. What fun!
