Lots of fun, sometimes poignant, often thought provoking. Nice to take with you for reading in spare moments.

Typical Bailey White: hilarious stories about the South. If you have read Mama Makes Up Her Mind, you know what I mean. Poignant, side-splitting, wise. Any fan of Southern fiction has to get to know Bailey White!

Bailey White's stories are really very funny ... but after a while, you start to notice that she's kind of mean-minded. I don't believe I'd care to be marooned with her on a desert island with limited resources.

Funny and perhaps a little too close to home! :)

A floow up to MAMA MAKES UP HER MIND. Quirky neighbors and even odder relatives. Quick, fun read. 3 stars

This book is a compilation of columns the author wrote for NPR. I love the stories regarding going to live with an eccentric older relative.

Bailey White is so funny. Reading her book is as wonderful as sipping a glass of iced cold tea, rocking on the front or back porch and leaving the stress of the world behind. Enjoy this great escape!

Love Bailey White's view of the world! These short stories are little gems, to be savored like a box of chocolates, slowly and one at a time!
