Georgia Bottoms Book review

Georgia Bottoms: A Novel
Georgia Bottoms is known in her small community of Six Points, Alabama, as a beautiful, well-to-do, and devoutly Baptist Southern belle.


Nobody realizes that the family fortune has long since disappeared, and a determinedly single woman like Georgia needs an alternative, and discreet, means of income. In Georgia's case it is six well-heeled lovers-one for each day of the week, with Mondays off-none of whom knows about the others.

But when the married preacher who has been coming to call (Saturdays) decides to confess their affair in front of the whole congregation, Georgia must take drastic measures to stop him. ( Goodreads.com)
Georgia Bottoms has been seeing men on a different night of the week. She lives with her brother , and mama. She is trying to keep everyone out of trouble .

This story takes place over a two week period , and during this time she has to make some tough choices. Her son comes back, and her brother breaks out of prison. Her mom also has dementia.

The town also loses a Preacher and gets a new one. The men of cloth seem to like to spend their time with Georgia. She also sees a Doctor, Sheriff,a council man, and couple more men from the town.

This was book was interesting and funny at times. I couldn't relate to the character at all or her family situation. This book had some slow points and trying to keep track of the all the men, and her how this story took place over. It felt like 2 weeks but in a chapter it mentioned a year later.

  3. Well, shoot, 'cause I do like the cover, too! I haven't read this book, but maybe you'll like us Georgia Girls better. I've moved to a brand, spankin' new blog with some fun women. We're a little shy and are just getting started, but have some fun ideas in the works.

    Stop by for a visit...take a peek at our meet-n-greet giveaway (until Mar 1), if you want to that is. We love company.
    If you take a look at this post, you will see what I think of Gerard Butler :)
