The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop by Fannie Flagg
My mom read Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe to me in elementary school, and it’s remained one of my all time favorite books since then. I have this tattered copy I’ve read so many times that I brought with me to my dorm room. It used to say “booker picker book club pick #1” on the inside cover, but the cover was torn off. Ruth and Idgie (the lesbians that ran the cafe in the 1920s) mean more to me than any other characters period.
I had no idea Flagg wrote a follow up book until today. I listened to the entire thing on 2x speed and finished it in one day. It follows Bud Threadgoode, Ruth and Idgies son, who is now an old man. It def wasn’t comparable to the original, but it did make me weep over my graphic design project. My teacher was concerned, guys .
Idk but I think everyone should read fried green tomatoes and I think I’m going to reread it now.
