Whiskey in a Teacup

by Reese Witherspoon Narrated by Reese Witherspoon

Overview

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 that 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 these pages, 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?

Editorial Reviews

OCTOBER 2018 - AudioFile

In an audiobook full of recipes, tips, and remembrances of her family, actress, entrepreneur, and producer Reese Witherspoon delivers a performance bursting with quintessential Southern charm. Witherspoon’s bubbly personality leaps out of the speakers as she delights the listener with tales of her grandmother Dorothea, lessons learned from other childhood influences, and tips on how to party Southern style. At just under three hours, this production is surprisingly short when compared to the print edition’s length. Many pages of recipes and photographs are shared via an accompanying PDF. Even with Witherspoon’s stellar narration, the content missing from the audio makes this book a better choice for the eyes than the ears. A.L.S.M. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
