You Can't Drink All Day If You Don't Start in the Morning Audiobook

" I loved this book. It kept me laughing from beginning to end! "

" Light, whimsical, Southern humor. Somehow, I didn't find it quite as funny as the previous Celia Rivenbark books I read. Maybe because I was recovering from a back injury, and couldn't aprreciate the humor as much. The title comes from one joke told by one acquaintance in one story. Other than that, there's little focus on drinking. The humorous stories cover a variety of topics. "

" This is a book that is well worth listening to on cd (read by the author). Celia Rivenbark is from a small North Carolina town close to my hometown. I related to far too many of her stories. Her language is a bit rough and nothing is off limits - she's willing to make fun of just about anything but I found some chapters were really funny. This isn't a thought provoking novel but strictly brain candy. "

" It's a bit thick on the southern humor, y'all* but includes some pretty good recipes that are easy to make... "

" Rivenbark is always lots of fun! "

" it was okay. Funny in some parts. Very southern perspective. Easy beach read. Read in a couple hours. "

" Given to me by my thoughtful friend, Carol. She thought I'd like it because it was my "humor" and she was so right! I loved it. I had to be careful about reading it before bed, otherwise I had to stifle my belly laughs while my husband lay sleeping beside me. "

" Very funny. I love audiobooks that are read by the author. "

" Funny! Great on a day you need a laugh. "

" Many of these essays had me laughing out lout. "

" Read all books by Celia Rivenbark, that is an order. All of these are laugh-out-loud hilarious! "

" Just giving this a 3 because it is not my kind of book! She is a funny writer though and I'm sure this will be well-liked by many! Think David Sedaris southern girl style. She is too crude for my taste...but most comedians are! Thanks for giving me a copy to read and review! "

" Laugh out loud funny!!! Laughed and laughed "

" I love some other her other books. Not sure if it's the topic... It was just ok this time around "

" One ascerbic, caustic remark after another is not funny to me but toxic. ALthough I enjoyed her first chapter and laughed - a whole book of absolutely nothing but criticism was more than I could handle. "

" I really liked this collection. Thought it was one of her best. "

" I so relate to the chapter about parents who send there kids to school sick and are thrilled when they get the perfect attendance award. She has some very Seinfeld kinds of ideas. "

" Just finished reading this one! Once again, I'm laughing out loud throughout the book. Love her sense of humor! "

" Readalicious! Such a fun, little treat!! "

" very funny read. didn't know what to expect when i bought it, but i enjoyed it. "

" Not my favorite of her books but still pretty funny. "

" I think my expectations of this book were too high - mainly from the hysterical title. I so wanted to love this book, but only managed a few chuckles throughout it. It felt contrived to me. Maybe I'm just not southern enough! "

" A nice light read for tax season. "

" Did not care for this book - "

" Loved this book - Celia Rivenbark makes me laugh out loud! "

" I thought this book pretty much sucked... It had a couple funny things in it, but just a collection of her columns, just random BS... "

" Hysterical, that is all I can say. I think it is better to listen to this one, the author's delivery is fantastic. "

" Not as good as some of her other books I have read, but a quick amusing read. "

" Really funny satire on the author's experiences growing up in a small North Carolina town. I loved her take on the southern small town. "

" Funny! Great on a day you need a laugh. "

" Loved the title! It was a funny book but not a lol one like her others that I have read. "

" I was very excited to kick off my summer with a hilarious chick lit read; however, the last time I laughed was the title. While the book was humorous, it was nothing new and nothing that made me laugh out loud. "

" Very funny. Celia R. says what most of are thinking but too afraid to say! I had to get this book just because of it's title. I may look into her other books as well. This is an easy and fun read...great for vacation. Also, has some nice recipes in it. "

" Boring. Tried to be funny and witty, but it just wasn't. Overplayed the whole "this is how we do it in the South" thing. I didn't finish it. "

" This author is hysterical! I have read all her other books but one--which I have in my to be read pile.Highly recommend for a funny fast read "

" This book was a nice departure from keeping up with a plot. It was funny but sometimes I found the Southern humor not to be truthfully Southern. I would consider reading her other books but I'm not dying to pick the next one up. It was just an alright read. Amusing but not a page-turner. "

" You probably need to be from the South to appreciate some of this book, but Rivenbark is a funny writer. And I have heard many of the expressions she mentions. Guess that's why I'm moving back to the South. "

" I thought this book pretty much sucked... It had a couple funny things in it, but just a collection of her columns, just random BS... "

" A nice light read for tax season. "

" Hilarious in a southern twisted kinda way... "

" I wasn't as crazy about this book as Rivenbark's others, but she gets 4 stars for the cat whisperer chapter. "

" I read this book because of the recommendation from my fav author Jen Lancaster. Another collection of funny essays but not all that funny. Would have given 2.5 stars if an option. "
