When I heard the movie was based on the book to say I was excited is an understatement. I grew up with Ruth and Idgie. The book is a good bit different with some scenes from the movie and where I am sad they pick it up with details about my favorite characters. I love seeing Buddy (Stump) growing up but the whole bringing him to Eva so he could learn to have sex was disgusting. Once I read the last page of this book I wanted to cry. A part of me didn't want it to be over. I wanted to live on in Whistle Shop. Now I am going to go watched the movie and get excited all over again!
