I loved this book!!! Saving CeeCee Honeycutt was one of those books that grabbed me the moment I began to read. I read 200 pages in one sitting. I wanted to join CeeCee and her collection of charming Southern women in Savannah. I never wanted to reach the end of this gem. I do hope that Beth Hoffman...
AudioThis was a sweet book but a little shallow for the plot.I kept expecting to get to the meaty part. Then it just ended. It felt incomplete to me.Oh well, I still enjoyed it.Especially the narrator of the audio version. She was amazing!
12-year-old CeeCee Honeycutt goes to live with her Aunt Tootie in 1960s Georgia after her mentally ill mother dies.All I knew for sure was this: I had been plunked into a strange, perfumed world that, as far as I could tell, seemed to be run entirely by women.There are many things I liked about this...

Her existence is not easy, as she is ostracized by neighbors, made fun of by classmates, pretty much forsaken by her dad who seems too weak to deal with her mom’s sickness, and almost f...
I found this book to be very enchanting. It touched on many tough issues ie mental illness, death, abandonment but the author chose to make it an uplifting book even when the character were faced with those hardships. I fell in love with all the people in this book and found myself wishing I had gro...
An easy light read told from a 12 year olds perspective I found myself smiling one moment and almost crying the next. I loved the southern setting and the colorful characters that helped Cee Cee find peace. Makes me want to pack my bags and move to Savannah, Georgia.
★★★★☆ (This is a review of the audiobook.) This was charmingly narrated by Jenna Lamia who convincingly sounds not only like an intelligent, forlorn little 12 year-old girl, but the many moods of CeeCee herself – worry, happiness, embarrassment, guilt, wonder, revenge, fear, grief, sadness, humor, ...
A quick read and a heart-warming story with some brilliantly laugh-out-loud moments. While the book touches on some dark topics - mental illness, child neglect, prejudice, racial injustice - you know that everything is going to be just fine. Reading this book is like watching a Shirley Temple movie....
