A Novel

De: Fannie Flagg

Narrado por: Fannie Flagg

The beloved Fannie Flagg is back and at her irresistible and hilarious best in I Still Dream About You, a comic mystery romp through the streets of Birmingham, Alabama, past, present, and future.

Meet Maggie Fortenberry, a still beautiful former Miss Alabama. To others, Maggie’s life seems practically perfect - she’s lovely, charming, and a successful real-estate agent at Red Mountain Realty. Still, Maggie can’t help but wonder how she wound up in her present condition. She had been on her hopeful way to becoming Miss America and realizing her childhood dream of someday living in one of the elegant old homes on top of Red Mountain, with the adoring husband and the 2.5 children, but then something unexpected happened and changed everything.

Maggie graduated at the top of her class at charm school, can fold a napkin in more than 48 different ways, and can enter and exit a car gracefully, but all the finesse in the world cannot help her now. Since the legendary real-estate dynamo Hazel Whisenknott, beloved founder of Red Mountain Realty, died five years ago, business has gone from bad to worse - and the future isn’t looking much better. But just when things seem completely hopeless, Maggie suddenly comes up with the perfect plan to solve it all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Undoubtedly [Flagg’s] wisest book, comic and compassionate... Born of a tender heart and nurtured by an imaginative mind, it’s certain to touch the reader’s soul.” (Richmond Times Dispatch)

“A fun and rollicking Nancy Drew mystery for grown-ups.” (The Birmingham News)

“Classic Fannie... What [Flagg] writes about, time and again, are the touching, terrifying, heartbreaking, hysterical, extraordinary, everyday things that make us human.” (Southern Living)

Fabulous story and reader!

I love all of Fannie Flagg's stories and this was no exception. She reads her own stories so well that you wouldn't ever want someone else to read them! This book is funny, entertaining and sad in parts...a great read!

Love this writer and this book.

This story is so real. You can easily relate to what the characters think and do. I listen to the book while walking my dog and I am constantly laughing out loud at the characters antics. One funny episode involved a character who was in Overeaters Anonymous falling off the wagon and being caught at it. LOL funny. I plan on reading every book by this author.

Love this book!!

Give yourself time to get into this book, it's so well worth the listen!!! I love all Fannie Flagg books, but I think this is my favorite!

Still Dream

I really enjoyed this book. It's not life changing, but certainly uplifting. Great humor.

Very Enjoyable!

I loved this book. It was very entertaining with surprising twists and turns. I especially enjoyed all the references to Birmingham, which were so familiar. I’m so glad it was narrated by Fannie Flagg with her authentic southern accent; no one else could have done it justice!

Wonderful!

Fannie Flagg never disappoints. Her characters are real and you can relate to them. I listened to this book at work. Several times I laughed and my co-workers wondered what I was listening to! Another great read/listen from Miss Flagg. Keep writing please and I will keep buying.

Pure Joy

It's so fun to read a book that can be so entertaining that you can laugh right out loud. It's sure better for you then reading upsetting notifications from news sources that pop up on your phone!! Do yourself a favor and get this book as soon as possible!!

Twists and Turns

Enjoyed the humor of Miss Flagg. The twists and turns of the plot are enjoyable. Love to hear Miss Flagg' interpretation of her characters.

Fannie Flagg it's my favorite traveling companion

I Still Dream About You was a novel of epic proportions. Fannie Flagg served up a satisfying dish of intermingled plots infused with flavourful characters topped off with mystery and intrigue and sprinkled with micro bits of historical facts. I loved it.

Did Not Disappoint! Typical Fannie Flagg

I'm a huge fan of Fannie Flagg, minus one book, "The Whole Town's Talking", but that's another story/review.

This one is typical Fannie!! Some honest to God laugh out loud moments, many very touching vignettes. I was sort of sad when it ended.
