Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe: A Novel Audiobook

" I am so glad that this book was recommended by book club or I would ha e never picked it up. This book was delightful. It was a great story that captivated you from the beginning. I liked the way the story was told in transitions with ton of foreshadowing. It was a very enjoyable. If you enjoyed The Help then you would definitely enjoy this novel. I am looking forward to watching the movie as I have heard that it is equally enjoyable. "

" Lately, I am obsessed with stories about the south, and this one was perfect. I was nostalgic for a time I've never experienced. I loved the different avenues the author took to explain the story, and the friendships expressed. The love story was a little surprising at first just because of time period and setting, but it fit the story. Can't wait to see the movie! "

" Wasn't in the mindset to follow all the jumping around I guess:( neat story just hard to follow for me "

" Loved this book. Read it many years ago after seeing the movie. Usually I have issues when I see the movie first, then read the book. Not with this book/movie duo; both were fantastic! I would read this book again. "

" This novel is surprisingly deep. I love myself a good Southern-style read, there's something very sweet and homey about the prose. I didn't like it quite as much as I liked "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood," but I think "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe" has a bit more substance. "

" I have always enjoyed the Fried Green Tomatoes movie, but never realized that it was based off a book. I'm so happy I discovered it! Fannie Flagg's writing is wonderful and her characters feel like they have so much depth and history behind them. I also particularly loved that she managed to address so many social/political issues in her book, but done in a way that draws you close to the characters and makes you see things from their point of view. I loved it and can't wait to read more of her work! "

" Great southern read! Fannie Flagged is one of the best authors from the south! "

" Same story as the movie I love so much. Great book. =) "

" An entertaining story of various women where no one character dominates. The book has the same feeling and tone as the movie (which was great), but obviously with more depth and detail. "

" Fannie Flagg is one of my favorite authors. "

" I loved the characters and story but was distracted by the format. And some of the story line didn't ring true, but all in all, it was a very enjoyable read "

" I thoroughly enjoyed reading Fannie Flagg's works, but I must confess, I preferred "Welcome to the World, Baby Girl". "

" Much, much better than the movie and the movie was good. "

" A quick read with memorable characters! "

" Good overall book, but it is hard to follow and doesn't make you want to keep reading "

" Far better than "The Help" by K. Stockett. A fun, fast read. "

" My personal inclination is that if there is any Cannibalism I just cant get over it. "

" i like Flagg's way of story telling. but somehow i enjoyed the film adaption more. "

" this type of love story is just not my cup of tea. Plus, the main characters didn't interest me. "

" Witty, sweet, thoughtful and well worth a read. "

" I loooove the movie, and watched it before reading the book. Contrary to usual, I like the film better. "

" One of my all-time favorite books (though slightly behind "Welcome To The World Baby Girl"). I love Fannie Flagg. "

" I really, REALLY love this book, and have read it many times. "

" One of those rare books where I liked the movie as much as I did the book! "

" This is a sweet and lovely book, placed very firmly in the South. "

" I really enjoy Fannie Flagg's books. "

" One of my all time favorites, along with Fannie Flaggs Red Bird Christmas. "

" If you recall Fannie Flagg as the perpetually smiling game-show diva, someone famous for being famous, you might over look this book. Don't. "

" Another Southern story with a grand cast of quirky characters. Tons of heart, mixed with a dash of murder and personal victories. Fannie Flagg's sense of humor makes this story sing. "

" I must say this is one book, maybe the only book I have ever read, where the movie was better. Read it if you must, watch the movie to enjoy. "

" Towanda the Avenger...... Need I say more about this beautiful, heartwarming story about old age, friendships between women and life stages! A beautiful blend of the present day with the old South to tell a great story of Ruth and Idgy. "

" Una lettura sorprendente, proprio come la ricetta da cui prende il titolo. Gli ingredienti sembrano semplici e ordinari, la preparazione non mostra grandi difficoltà, ma alla fine il risultato è una pietanza estremamente sostanziosa e per nulla scontata. "
