Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg

4.0

One of my absolute favorite movies but only somewhat recently found out that it was based off a book! Of course, I’m always partial to whichever format of a story I’m exposed to first so I will always love the movie the most but the audiobook was very enjoyable! (I was so impressed by the narrator that I looked up who it was and was shocked to find out it was the woman who played the elderly gypsy in Drag Me To Hell 🥲)

I particularly loved the chapter detailing Evelyn’s descent into anxiety/depression/grief and mid-life crisis after her Mother’s death, and feeling like her life is out of her control; these are feelings and experiences that all of us go through/relate to at one point or another.
