Sweet Tea & Jesus Shoes By Sandra Chastain, Deborah
Smith, Donna Ball, Virginia Ellis, Debra Dixon, Nancy Knight Narrated By Lee
Ann Howlett
Length: 4 hrs and 27 mins
This was a cute collection of southern short stories; is it
odd that my favorites are the ones about funerals and death. Each story is a
unique look at a day in the life of a southern family.
I’m sorry, if I had read this in paper I would have had the
name of each story and a little something about each one but since I listened
on audio I’ll just have to wing it. My favorites were Nola’s Ashes and the Aunt
Betsey’s funeral story, also the one about Grandma telling a story made me
giggle hard! Also the Outhouse story had some funny moments too.
Lee Ann’s narration took a little bit to get used to but I ended
up enjoying it very much, I felt at times she was channeling Lorna Raver, she
has a similar husky note to her voice that serves Lorna so well. Although some characters
may have sounded older than they were written, I was still very happy with the
narration. This was my first book narrated by Lee Ann but I would listen to her
again.
If you are a southern fiction fan I would recommend these
short stories.
3 ½ Stars
I received this audiobook from the Audiobookjukebox and the
narrator/publisher for a fair and honest review.
