Five Star Readers' Favorite

Young Poppy Wainwright feels much like a deck of cards, shuffled around from a boozing mother to a beloved grandmother. Finally bussed to Savannah, Georgia, to live with her grandmother's cantankerous sister, Sookie. Through the enlightened eyes of a 13-year-old girl, the hilarity and insanity ensues.

From the best-selling author of A Faithful Son comes this rollicking romp of a ride that does not disappoint.

Aunt Sookie & Me: The Sordid Tale of a Scandalous Southern Belle is irreverent, hilarious, and heartbreaking. All political correctness is buried alongside the dead corpse in the family vegetable garden in this riotous book. But don't let the folksy and fresh recipe fool you, Garvin serves up a big helping of reality, cutting through small-town bigotry and bias.

"Aunt Sookie & Me is a heady and hilarious mixture of hard-won wisdom and Southern saltiness...the take deals with some weighty issues including sexual identity and domestic violence, but Garvin's compassion and light touch make this a highly entertaining and enjoyable novel." (Publishers Weekly)

Ms Hickman did a fantastic job

Angie Hickman hit it out of the ballpark with Garvin's novel. She captured each of the different zany characters.

The vocal delivery of the reader is excellent, seems perfectly matched to the story and characters.

This is a charming story that warms my sense of nostalgia for neighborhood life and late childhood awareness of the world. A story well told and well performed.

Great narrator and story!

An absolute gem to listen to! Two thumbs all the way up! Sassy, sweet and very southern!

Southern Lit at Its' Best

Warm, beautiful, heartbreaking, this story touches all emotions. It is everything a good book should be, a best friend, something you do not want to end.

Beautifully written

I really enjoyed this book. Beautifully written and heartfelt. The narrator was also excellent. I fell in love with Poppy and hope for a follow up book!
