Title: Lacks substance
Review: The humor that was promised never came to fruition. The characters are not believable for the era and setting. Joshilyn Jackson writes as if she were the angry voice of her main character. She attempts to portray the actions of the characters as humorous, but instead they come across as classless boors with no respect for others or themselves. If I were not from the South and didn't know better, I would have a low opinion of Southerners. Jackson uses the same typical unimaginative descriptions that have been used for eons to describe Southern culture. The whole tone of this book is crude and insulting. Thankfully it is a quick read (translation:short) and doesn't take much intelligence on the reader's part. Rating: R for language and content.
