Okay, so, I am a "Yankee" who went to college in Kentucky, which Ms. Rivenbark would probably dub a "border state" as opposed to the true South. My roommate and best friend, however, was an Alabama gal whose Mom made the best sweet tea in the country and who began a launch into gossip with the patented Southern phrase "I don't mean to be ugly, but . . . " This book not only brings me back to my 4-years of college in the South and all the cultural bizarritudes that I witnessed in the name of being "Southern," but it is also laugh-out-loud funny for a working mother who aspires to be a "slacker Mom" and is also a (self-acclaimed) expert in pop culture and politics. Way to go, Celia! I can't wait to read your other 2 books.
