Our Readers Are Lovin' It

Me, Boo and The Goob

“This little gem of a book is becoming a beloved classic and and will one day be an Oscar-winning blockbuster of a movie, á la Forrest Gump”

Me, Boo and The Goob

The writer, William L. Garner, bills this as fiction, but it reads like a series of connected essays that form a first person, non-fiction account of (possibly) his own childhood (albeit with a generous helping of “fish story” creative embellishment, and maybe a flat out whopper or two).

 

Me, Boo and The Goob

“This series of hilarious vignettes, set in the South in the late 60’s, is narrated by a wonderfully precocious and self-assured 10 year old named Willie…I think. I’m still unsure about his name and a couple of other things. But trust me…get past that, and you are in for a treat! The writer is good, and the bones are solid. You WILL be entertained!

JD and Me

I laughed so hard that I actually cried (a little). Bill’s an extremely talented wordsmith!

JD and Me

If you were brought up in any of the southern states mentioned you should find this book quite entertaining.

Great book for a summer read!
