You Don't Sweat Much for a Fat Girl is another humorous book by the celebrated Celia Rivenbark.
This was my first book by her, and I was afraid that as a "Yankee" who has never had a desire to live down South, I might not like it.
Boy, was I wrong!
Rivenbark has a way with her writing style that makes her accessible and funny to anyone with a good imagination and intelligence. I was cracking up while reading (which isn't something I normally do). Be it Duh Hubby's Mission Impossible style tactics to escape paying for the wet bar at a Vegas Hotel or her observations on how Chinese women will outnumber Chinese men (and therefore, soon take over the dating scene), she is witty, funny and relateable.
I already have another one of her books and cannot wait to read it-that's how hooked I am!
