Oh my goodness, the Sweet Potato Queens make me laugh!
This is the first book Jill Conner Browne wrote. It explains the hilarious origins of the Sweet Potato Queens and some of their initial exploits.
All books about the Sweet Potato Queens are hilarious, not exactly respectful of men (at least when they don't deserve respect), irreverent, and did I say hilarious? Reading Jill Conner Browne brings out the queenliness in each of us and helps us laugh at ourselves and everyone else.
Tremendous fun in a way that can't be explained. Pick up a copy and read it yourself!
