A review by cathi77
Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg

2.0

Years ago I watched the movie, I don't remember much but I do remember that I enjoyed it.  I thought i would love the book as I usually enjoy them more than the movie but it was not the case.

I loved Evelyn and Ninnys relationship and learning about the Threadgoodes but that was about all I loved.
I found the jumping around years very confusing as you were never sure were in the timeline it fitted it.  I didn't find the point of Dot Weems because she was essentially repeating what either Evelyn and Ninny were talking about and then you were taken back into the timeline to when it did happen.  A lot of repetition.
