Jill Conner Browne writes comic nonfiction around the Sweet Potato Queens, a deliberately flamboyant sisterhood built on costumes, friendship, irreverent advice and Southern humour. The Sweet Potato Queens' Book of Love mixes personal stories, mock wisdom, recipes and observations about relationships, while God Save the Sweet Potato Queens continues the same blend of anecdote and comic rules for life. The Big-Ass Cookbook and Financial Planner adds food and deliberately unserious financial guidance, and later books turn to men, weddings, children and ageing. Browne's voice is bawdy, exaggerated and communal rather than reflective memoir. Her books fit Southern humour, women's comic nonfiction, friendship and gift-book culture. Read more Less
