Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg

5.0

This is my favorite favorite book. Ignoring the fact that is extremely problematic, it is just such a wonderful read. It’s sad and funny and has so much heart in it. The characters are so lovable and frustrating. This book is undoubtedly my favorite book. Ruth and Idgie and big George and sipsey and Grady OH GOSH. I would LOVE some greater insight into Ruth and Idgies relationship but part of the magic is that we only get glimpses. It makes it that much more special. Gosh Ruth BREAKS my heart. This book is entertaining, perfectly paced, well written, just a warm and meaningful story. God I love this book.
