Book review about Billie Holiday

[wondersofwine]

I'm all for it Georgie. To some extent my book club group alternates between fiction and nonfiction and serious or light reading. Last time was serious--"The Immense Journey" by Loren Eiseley (where we discussed how we reconcile our religious faith with a belief in evolution) and this time it is "We're Just Like You Only Prettier: Confessions of a Tarnished Southern Belle" by Celia Rivenbark (humorous essays about Southern life). We debated between that one and another humorous title we may read later--"Being Dead Is No Excuse--the Southern Woman's Guide to the Perfect Funeral." I'm always scouting for good book discussion titles. I'd like to do a biography of Ben Franklin but the two main candidates are both quite lengthy and I haven't been able to persuade the others in the group.
