Bless Your Heart, Tramp: And Other Southern Endearments
From the wickedly hilarious pen of Southern humorist Celia Rivenbark comes a collection of essays that brings to mind Dave Barry (in high heels) or Jeff Foxworthy (in a prom dress).

Step into the wacky world of “womanless wedding” fund-raisers, in which Bubbas wear boas. Meet two sisters who fight rural boredom by washing Budweiser cans and cutting them into pieces to make clothing. Learn why the word snow sends any right-thinking Southerner careening to the Food Lion for extra loaves of bread and little else.
Humor columnist and slightly crazed belle-by-birth Celia Rivenbark tackles these and other lard-laden subjects in Bless Your Heart, Tramp, a hilarious look at Southern---and just plain human---foibles, up-close and personal.
So pour yourself a glass of sweet tea and curl up on the pie-azza with Bless Your Heart, Tramp.

Don't Sleep with a Bubba: Unless Your Eggs are in Wheelchairs
Celebrated humorist and columnist Susan Reinhardt hits another homerun with "Don't Sleep with a Bubba," the follow-up collection of wild and heartfelt stories to "Not Tonight Wait 'Til I"m a Size 6."

In "Don't Sleep with a Bubba," she runs into her usual hilarious suspects: the dog that underwent liposuction of the "private parts," the drunk that got a DWI on horseback while getting a Happy Meal on his steed at the drive-thru, and her crazy sister's antics, which include painting her grass green in the winter, selling Jesus pancakes on eBay, and her outrageous pre-school teaching practices.

While most of Reinhardt's stories are colorful and hilarious, she goes into a deeper side with this new book and reveals her horror with a date rape at a frat house when she was 17, and a nine-day stay in a psyche ward for a plunging depression.

Vivid, candid and heartfelt, her stories will both entertain and inspire..
