This was my bookclub's June selection and my first Fannie Flagg. I really like her style of writing. It's a very good book! The subject matter was very interesting and I couldn't wait to turn the page to find out more. I've seen the movie Fried Green Tomatoes based on another of her books and it was...

Superb right down to the last word. How Flagg manages to write such emotional stories without resorting to schmaltz or hackneyed clichés I'll never know.

Her mother, who is loosing it mentally, and is a character to boot, has other ideas. Sookie finds out her family history is not what she thought it was an...
