An absolute hoot! ( )

Excellent book. Very different from the movie, which I also enjoyed. And there are recipes in the back! ( )

Wonderful Southern fiction -- alternately hysterically funny and tearfully poignant. What's stuck with me the most since reading the book several years ago are the friendships of the women -- particularly Ruth and Idgie. Anyone who's seen the movie ought to read the book, too -- there are some differences, and there's just plain a lot more to the book (as is usually the case). ( )

Another of my all-time favorites. Set in the South, it's a story of women and their relationships. ( )

"Watch out for Fannie Flagg. When I walked into the Whistle Stop Cafe, she fractured my funny bone, drained my tear ducts, and stole my heart."
