Tomorrow her new book is being released " The Wonder Boy Of Whistlestop. ".  It's about  Ruth's son, Ruth of " Fried Green Tomatoes ."  I love most of her books and I just wanted to alert those who were unaware that she had a new one coming out.

She reads the audio books of her stories with that great Southern accent.

I have had this book on reserve at the library for a long time.  Glad it is being released.  I reserved early so I think I am not far down the list.  Hopefully I will have it to read shortly.  She has always been a favorite of mine, I've read all her books.

Love her books.  Reserved it months ago at library and what a surprise last week when I went in to library for another older book and this one was waiting for me!  Read it in two days.  Enjoy it.

Thank you for the heads up on this book! I just loved the original book and movie. It would be great if this one is just as good. I'll be curious for reviews if anyone gets it and wants to share their thoughts on it.

Thank you.  I remember Fannie from game shows, primarily The Match Game, but had no idea why she was famous or that she was a writer.

I just finished it, and I really liked it. It was like hearing what happened to old friends, sometimes sweet, sometimes sad.  I stayed up way to late or should I say early to finish it.
