While reading this book, I kept wondering how did Ms. Brown know my relatives. This book kept me in stitches. I laughed so much when the family was making the funeral arrangements because all I kept visualizing were my relatives. Ms Brown really captured the essence of some of my family functions that I had the pleasure of attending.
Ms. Brown 's writing style was very easy to follow, even though she mixed the southern dialect of Uncle Thomas with the everyday lingo. I was still able to understand what was being said and how it was meant. Some of the attitudes and issues were a bit far fetched, but the story line was believable. We all have secrets and some we swear we will take to our graves, but unfortunately some secrets don't remain there.
