Very funny but Stop Dressing is SO MUCH more hilarious to read! I read all of these, with the exception of Belle Weather, months ago and I still remember and laugh at some of the funny things in Stop Dressing. I'd Stop Dressing before any of her others, even though they're all funny.

You can see this author's lame one-liners coming a mile away. She offers nothing new, fresh or insightful about southern womanhood...I find her success quite mystifying. Rivenbark's series of stand-up routines in book form was done better and with more class by Erma Bombeck Roseanne Barr decades ago.

Celia Rivenbark's collection of essays is a must-read for anybody who wants a funny, no-holds-barred look at today's South. As a reviewer stated, "I'll be sending copies to everyond, especially my baby's daddy." LOL

Funny one (and you know what they always say - the true things are the funniest!)
