Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Celebrated humorist and columnist Susan Reinhardt hits another homerun with 'Don't Sleep with a Bubba,' the follow-up collection of wild and heartfelt stories to 'Not Tonight Wait 'Til I'm a Size 6.'
In 'Don't Sleep with a Bubba,' she runs into her usual hilarious suspects: the dog that underwent liposuction of the 'private parts,' the drunk that got a DWI on horseback while getting a Happy Meal on his steed at the drive-thru, and her crazy sister's antics, which include painting her grass purple in the winter, selling Jesus pancakes on eBay, and her outrageous pre-school teaching practices.
While most of Reinhardt's stories are colorful and hilarious, she goes into a deeper side with this new book and reveals her horror with a date rape at a frat house when she was 17, and a nine-day stay in a psyche ward for a plunging depression.
Vivid, candid and heartfelt, her stories will both entertain and inspire.

Loved most of this book (as it is a book of short stories of the writer's life). She definitely has a great way of telling story AND she sounds like we could be best of friends. She is hysterically funny and REAL. The only bummer is there were a few stories that were a bit depressing. I dropped the book for 2 weeks and didn't pick it back up cuz I was bored with it. I would read other stories of hers though.

if you enjoy the unique narrative stories by david sedaris, augusten burroughs and erma bombeck, you will really really enjoy the voice of susan reinhardt. this was the very first novel i read of hers and i'm going to pick up others for some good beach reading.

This uncensored collection of deeply funny and moving scenes from the life of a modern-day Southern belle will pull a laugh right up out of your belly, while at the same time you're shaking your head and saying, "Yes! Isn't that just how Life is?" Susan Reinhardt is not afraid to lay bare her own soul, fearlessly sharing some painful spots along with the fun ride. The result is unforgettable.

I throughly enjoyed her very first book, and delved into the second with a good deal of anticipation.
The book is well written, and worthwhile in many ways, but it is NOT lighthearted comedy. If you are looking for escapist light humor, THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR YOU. I would have felt differently about this, perhaps, if I had had a glimmer of a warning of some of the subject matter. It certainly was a drastic departure from the content and tone of her very first book.
Imagine, if you will, expecting a light hearted romp of southern foibles, and then reading, in order, about rape, suicide, and then the murder of hamsters in a grisly fashion. Yech! I do not know what happened after that, the book is now in the trash, and I am a little sickened every time I think about it.

Just finished reading Don't Sleep with a Bubba: Unless Your Eggs are in Wheelchairs and per usual, I laughed til I almost wet myself (perhaps more information than you bargained for), and cried as well. Loved it! I will force the women of my mom's club to purchase every last copy at barnes and noble!
Also, wanted to say thank you to Susan for her heart-felt honesty with regard to depression and bipolar disorder. Like her, I'm one of those women who smiles through everything and cracks jokes so that know one knows or sees the "darker side." I had awful post-partum depression after my son was born and suffered in silence. I'm certain my husband thought I needed a straight-jacket and horse pills, but no one said a word. I loved the chapters about her children (my little angel had jaundice as well - poor thing had to go back to the hospital and bake under the lights too!) Luckily, my best friend gave me Susan's very first book "Not Tonight Honey" and my mood lifted! Amazing what a little womanly humour can do for the soul!
Susan has once again touched my heart and lifted my spirits! A must-read for every woman!
