Bless Your Heart

A Field Guide to All Things Southern

De: Landon Bryant, Adam Trest

Narrado por: Landon Bryant

Hey, y’all. Welcome to the South! Viral sensation and TikToker Landon Bryant (@LandonTalks) presents his tongue-in-cheek “anthropological dive” into the food, fashion, linguistics, culture, holidays, and traditions of the American South.

“Let’s discuss . . .” These two words began the viral sensation that is @LandonTalks led by the sharp-witted, down-home, Mississippi-born Landon Bryant. If there’s one thing Landon knows, it’s the South. His anthropological dissections of customs and traditions celebrating all things Southern are a mix of humor, history, and head nodding.

In his debut book, Landon discusses everything you've ever wanted to know about the South, including why they say the things they say, why they eat the things they eat, and what it really means when someone says, "Bless your heart." Every step of the way, Landon infuses his faux field guide with warmth, whimsy, nostalgia, and his trademark down-to-earth personality with equal measure humor and practical information. If you’ve ever wondered why Southerners are always clutchin’ their pearls or what their affinity is for pecan pie or peanuts and Coke, then this field guide is for you.

Learn all about Southern superstitions (think haint blue porches to bottle trees), critter guides (how to spot ’em and how to avoid ’em), to common Southern sayings (“might could” translates to a polite Southern “no”). Chapter by chapter, Landon uses his signature style to study the common Southerner through a voice-driven, heartwarming lens, all the while sending the same message of unity and come-as-you-are hospitality that has made him the indisputable Southern sweetheart of social media.

This book has been filed under my top 5 favorites?

Landon's writing is spot on, describing things that vibrantly remind me of my childhood. I laughed out loud multiple times while listening to the book....and I am pretty sure I had a smile on my face the entire time I was listening to the book.

I am sure there are purist that only enjoy holding paper and reading the text, but you are missing out if you don't listen to Landon reading his words in his fabulous Sourhern accent.

I will be listening to this book over and over again!❤️

Wonderful Book

This is one of the most entertaining books I have ever read or listened to. Enjoyed all of it and learned much.

Local color

Loved the genuine Southern accent. It was dry humor and that is the kind I love most.

Amusing and Educational

I enjoyed it all. I've listened to it 3 times!
I'll probably listen to again!

LOVED THIS BOOK

I’m from the South (N. Central Florida) so this was fantastic to hear the writer/narrator share all things Southern. His accent drives the things discussed in this book HOME and the humor intertwined is an added bonus! Recommend to ALL!!
