Southern Lady Code: Essays by Helen Ellis
1.0
Helen Ellis’ humor is not my cup of tea. Bless her heart. This is a collection of short stories, and for me, the story telling fell flat. Honestly it was like listening to that friend of a friend that thinks she’s hilarious and just will not shut up.
Being from the south, I was hoping for more stories with southernisms. It was more like that essay you wrote in 7th grade where you had to write on a specific thing, but really didn’t know that much about it, so you used a bunch of filler words and hoped no one noticed.
