A best-selling author of books for adults and children, Mark Childress pens his most outrageous work yet with Georgia Bottoms. The titular heroine is the epitome of the church-going Southern belle, except for one teeny-tiny aspect of her life. Georgia’s family inheritance has long since evaporated, and to maintain her genteel lifestyle, Miss Bottoms has taken six affluent lovers—the fly in the ointment being that one is a married preacher who’s about to reveal their infidelity to the whole congregation.

You know there's trouble coming, but I was surprised each time by the way it came -- with unexpected twists and an array of cleanly, sympathetically drawn people, each singular and original. I especially loved the title character.

Loved the title character! I've enjoyed Mark Childress books ever since Crazy in Alabama kept me up all night several summers ago. Highly recommended.

Entertaining, fast-moving, unexpected twists!

Georgia reminds me of myself many years ago. I rooted for her all through it. Childress adds just enough about Georgia's clients and their exploits to keep your attention but not make it vulgar. when the doctor had to be taken to the hospital I laughed out loud. I highly recommend this book.

Couldn't stop listening

This was a lot of fun, I usually prefer mystery or action novels but this was a good change pace. It was funny and light. I took it with me on a business trip and it made the travel pass by fast. It's a great book to escape the mundane and pass time.

There were so many, but the most memorable would have to be when Georgia came clean in church about all her escapades and shenanigans.

Upon reading the summary, I thought this was going to be outstanding... I was disappointed! It has its "parts". Those that are cute and maybe even a bit chuckling. Overall... it runs slow, jumps between "stories" and just seems a bit tiring.

I listened it out, however, would not be quick to recommend, unless you were really in for a light-footed non-nonsensical story.

*Yawn* a bit of a sleeper

Love this book. My girlfriend and I spent a girls weekend at the coast and listened to it the whole time. It was fun to see what was happening around the corner.

Love it!

Being from Alabama, I was disappointed that the narrator mispronounced Mobile, Biloxi and a few other colloquialisms, but the story was entertaining, if improbable. Childress did a great job writing from a woman's point of view, especially describing Georgia's choice of clothing. It's a fun beach read.
