You Can't Drink All Day If You Don't Start In The Morning (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
So I've read through a few of the one-star ratings of this book. If you don't like Southern humor, don't like the word "y'all," aren't fond of the nicknames and niceties so common in the South, and hate grits, you probably won't like this book. At all. But for the rest of y'all, read on! Her commentary on everything from raising a family to Clay Aiken to mom jeans to going green is slap-your-momma hilarious. This is the book I loan to anyone who needs a better understanding of what I experienced growing up in the South. The print book is great, but the audiobook (read by the author!) is particularly lovely and great for roadtrips! Hilarious! I'm loaning this to my mom, a born and bred southern woman who will appreciate little gems that complete entire chapters, such as: "Things a Man Never Says to His Southern Wife" (or something along those lines. Answer: "Honey, I cleaned the cast iron skillet. Man that thing was dirty--like it had never been washed!" I think the author is coming out with another book and will absolutely, happily be a continued reader.
What do You think about You Can't Drink All Day If You Don't Start In The Morning (2009)?
mildly entertaining. i got a handful of laughs from the 173 pages....not worth it to purchase.
