Reseñas de la Crítica

“You don’t have to be from the South . . . you just have to like laughing out loud, a lot.” —Chicago Tribune

“This is not reading for the faint of heart. You could die laughing.”—St. Petersburg Times

Laugh out loud!

This has got to be the funniest thing I have listened to in a long time. Men will be offended by this book because it tells it like it is. This book is gaurenteed to get you out of a bad mood.

Laugh Out Loud Funny

Don't miss this one. Belly laughs are the best medicine and Sweet Potato Queens serves them up in mega doses

Don't pop a stitch

I had to wait a week after my sister's surgery before I let her listen to this so she wouldn't pop a stitch. My 11 year old daughter has me play this again and again for her. It is wisdom at its funniest best.

All Southern Women Will Understand

When you need a good laugh at yourself or your friends, this is the book! The recipes are delicious, the financial tips are priceless and Betty Crocker will never be thought of the same way. THE Sweet Potato Queen shares her heritage, family and friends and has you chuckling your way to work, home or whereever you are going. Enjoy!

Booty Queen Rules!

If you could sum up The Sweet Potato Queens' Big-Ass Audiobook and Financial Planner in three words, what would they be?

Fun, funny, funniest! This is the fun way to financial planning! Silly, and full of potty language, but let's eat, drink and be merry! For a Southern Lady, she knows how to misbehave. Jill's priorities are a hoot.

Who was your favorite character and why?

SPQ Jill! All her endearing co-stars, The Cutest Boy In The World, etc are wonderful.

What does Jill Conner Browne bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her voice is so southern, like butter melting on hot biscuits. Her passion of making lemonade from lemons is super funny. I didn't know a Southern Lady could be so almost feminist.

What did you learn from The Sweet Potato Queens' Big-Ass Audiobook and Financial Planner that you would use in your daily life?

I always learn from Jill to not take life SO seriously, but find the fun!

Amazingly Funny---full of southern charm and humor

My wife and I have enjoyed listening to this together...lots of fun. It is good to look with good natured humor at what makes men, men and women, women. The recipies sounds good too! Not so sure the financial planning aspects are all that helpful tho. Check your frowns at the door.

Hill-arious--but keep a pen a paper close to hand

This book is laugh-out-loud funny -- which caused a few side-long glances as I toiled myownpersonal big-assed self on the tread mill at the gym, which brings me to the title of my review: If you want to make some of the delicious-sounding recipes from the book, you need to make sure that you write down WHERE it is or right at the very moment you hear it stop and get a pen and paper and WRITE IT DOWN as you will not ever be able to find it again when you really want to make it -- like in the middle of night when you MUST have something salty, sweet, fried, or cheese -- especially if you follow the SPQ credo of being a dyed in the wool slackass, as I do.

Enjoy, y'all!

SPQ Books

I found this book to be so funny that I decided to download it on my Kindle (the book-not the audible) just for the recipes alone. I have made the rolls and they were a hit at the breakfast table. 3 ingredients! Can you imagine?

The only negative thing is that you will want to purchase this book as a "read" so that you will have all the delicious recipes. Another plus for the Kindle as you can find a recipe instantly.

Praise the Lord and Pass the Whomp Biscuits!

For Southern Women of a Certain Age, or any person how loves and admires the SPQs... the Audible production is outstanding for your entertainment purposes and cookbook collections. This is the first Audible cookbook I have experienced and Lord have mercy I absolutely love Jill Conner Brown's narration with all my heart. I am a native Mississippian and SPQ Wannabe - this cookbook is the best one I own because you don't have to cook a thing to enjoy reading this book and bust out laughing at Jill Conner Browne's reading it. This book makes my heart smile. LOVE IT! It is the funniest and most meaningful cookbook ever written. Lots of wit and wisdom to grace your heart and soul.

Lord, help!

Ladies, empty your bladder before listening to this one!

I am likely to be carted away to the funny farm, walking through the grocery store listening to this book on my iPod, and hooting with laughter. My sister got me hooked on the Sweet Potato Queens, but this is the first time I've listened to the hilarious author read aloud in her sweet Southern voice.

Just listen to the sample and you'll see what a treasure this is.
