A Very Enjoyable Read!

You can't read this book without laughing out loud and then having to go tell somebody what you just read! I love the essay style of her book.

I laughed so hard, I cried!

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Throne is a laugh-out-loud book that will have everyone bowing at the Queen's feet...while reaching for those Oreos! If you've been taking yourself too seriously, or suffering from a case of the "Baby Boomer blues," Richardson's book is the cure. She'll lighten your spirit while tickling your funny bone. On every page, her huge heart shines through. Plus, she must have strong genes because her boxer Trixie has also become a first-rate humorist!

Riotous Wit

Is it possible for ANYONE to be as funny as Erma Bombeck? If so, Georgia Richardson deserves the title of "the Erma Bombeck of the 21st century." Her riotous wit is delightful, and her book is a must have for every woman. But hold your stomach when you read it, because "A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Throne" is guaranteed to make even the dourest soul laugh out loud. It will keep you chuckling from beginning to end. If you don't find this book hilarious, check your pulse cuz you gotta be dead. Georgia, please write MORE. Modern women need more humor that makes us giggle till we jiggle and you're just the gal to provide it.

FUNNY, CHARMING and WISE!

This is a wonderful book - I was hooked on the first page and could NOT put it down! The stories are laugh-out-loud funny and deftly capture the spirit and life experiences of this spunky southern gal. When I wasn't howling at the dilemnas she manages to back herself into, I was smiling in recognition of the sweet humanity she reveals in every sentence. This book should be in every Christmas stocking in the country!

You've Just Got To Read This One!

Georgie Richardson, aka "Queen JawJaw", has written one of the most hilarious books I've ever read. Just when you have wiped the tears away from laughing so hard at one of the stories, you begin the next and grab for the tissue yet again. Georgia has "the gift" for writing wonderfully worded stories about life and things we ALL have experienced....but nobody experiences them quite the way she does! This book is an absolute MUST for your own collection but would make a fabulous gift for anyone you'd like to bring a huge dose of sunshine to. I can't wait to see what Georgia writes next - I know it's going to be hilarious because she's definitely #1 in the humor department.
