Customer Reviews

A complete disappointment

Jill Connor Brown usually leaves me in stitches. This particular book seemed to be thrown together and is not funny at all. Reading it felt like I was being punished. I could not even finish the book. Random caps lock for unfunny "emphasis" and mostly about her followers and what she pleasures herself with. Just awful.

A funny observation of American society and women's culture

AMERICAN THIGHS: THE SWEET POTATO QUEENS' GUIDE TO PRESERVING YOUR ASSETS comes form a humorist contributor to the New York Times and provides a handbook and memoir for women on being flashy and attractive. From why women risk their lives for blonde hair to how the muumuu has become the ordinary 'patio dress' and how to let loose one's 'inner hooker', AMERICAN THIGHS is a funny observation of American society and women's culture, recommended for any general-interest lending library.

GREAT BOOK!

This book lived up to her previous works and I could not put it down until I read it cover to cover! HRH has another winner!

Hilarious book!

Jill Conner Browne has done it again! She is on my "must buy" list but this is her best book is a long time. I laughed until I cried. I shared this book with my friend and she said the same thing. If you are looking for a good laugh, buy this book.

still laughing

What a great book. I laughed so hard and so often I scared my dogs. When something is this enjoyable to read, why, it just makes any day a little brighter and happier. And of course there are the recipes! What more could one ask for? Laughter and food! This book has it all!
