I keep looking at these Sweet Potato Queen books, but have never read one. I love your review of the SPQ's Guide to Raising Children... It sounds like a hoot!
Go with the first one SPQs' Book of Love and beware. It is full of debauchery, Sharon. ;D
I'm headed upstairs to the stacks right now to look for our copy of SPQ's Book of Love. Can't pass up that debauchery :)
Yay, Stella!!!
Debauchery, uh? Sounds like a no lose reading situation!
Lol, Sharon!
Hmm...I didn't know SPQ Jill Conner Browne was from Tupelo.
I thought she was from Jackson.
She was born in Tupelo and started the big royal court in Jackson, Pat. Here is her bio...

That is, if we can believe wikipedia?!? :P I couldn't find a birth date. Imagine that! :D I was looking to see if she was our age.
