Quotes

“As Sissy returns home to Newton, Texas, after the sudden death of her beloved Aunt Blanche, narrator Brittany Pressley makes her grief palpable for listeners.… Pressley gives Luke, a man of God, a calm manner without losing any of his masculinity. She provides subtle nuances as Sissy senses Blanche's presence from beyond, speaking to her and offering advice. Sissy has inherited a vodka-demanding cockatiel, and Pressley's portrayal of the bird adds a touch of vibrancy. Pressley brings the listener through the characters' grieving and journey back to happiness.” AudioFile Magazine
