Publisher's Summary

Academy award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she infuses the Southern style, parties, and traditions she loves with contemporary flair and charm.

Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said a combination of beauty and strength made Southern women “whiskey in a teacup”. We may be delicate and ornamental on the outside, she said, but inside, we’re strong and fiery.

Reese’s Southern heritage informs her whole life, and she loves sharing the joys of Southern living with practically everyone she meets. She takes the South wherever she goes with bluegrass, big holiday parties, and plenty of Dorothea’s fried chicken. It’s reflected in how she entertains, decorates her home, and makes holidays special for her kids - not to mention how she talks, dances, and does her hair (in this audiobook, you will learn Reese’s fail-proof, only slightly insane hot-roller technique). Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most delicious recipes as well as her favorite Southern traditions, from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers, magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.

It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home, no matter where you live. After all, there’s a Southern side to every place in the world, right?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A refreshing little book!

Thank-you!

I liked the little insights into Southern life.
The parental advice and wisdoms reminded me of my grandmother's and mother's teachings here in Canada ...where being polite has always been deemed important. I think it comes from our English roots. This politeness hasn't always been understood in the states where is it sometimes interpreted as being weak, whereas we are just being polite!

the accompanying PDFs sound interesting and I shall look them up.

sweet and refreshing

Ms Reese Witherspoon takes you through lively antidotes and sweet mementos all the while reminding you what it feels like to be at home. I loved this book from beginning to end and it feels like she's invited you onto her southern front porch.

Just love her

What a great way to read/hear about Reece’s southern life and the women that helped shape her into who she is today. Just a wonderful book, I’ll be buying a hard copy for my bookshelf.

A Southern's Lifestyle

This book really depicts the lifestyle of a woman living in the South. I personally wasn't a huge fan of the novel, however I can see how someone who would be interested in this topic would love hearing all of Reese Witherspoon's ideas, tastes, and party antics. She goes into depth on how a southern lady should act, and what brings them joy in life.

I thought this was more of an autobiography of her life, rather than a list of her favourite southern activities, how to host a good party, and small stories of what her grandparents taught her. This truly is all about the lifestyle southern ladies lead, rather than an autobiography on Reese's life.
