About Babes in Bucksnort
Babes in Bucksnort is the first sequel to the highly praised The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude.Once again the unconventional bourbon-swilling, chain-smoking nun will spin outrageously funny new tales about the residents of Bucksnort, Wisconsin while she tests the will of a reformed prostitute who just happens to be her Reverend Mother.Unfortunately there’s trouble brewing in the Snortlands. The nasty and notorious town busybody, Priscilla Bunhead, goes on a crusade to stamp out what she calls the gay menace. That’s when she convinces her millionaire friend, Mildred Mayflower, to give away her fortune in order to bring the Reverend Billy-Bob Blunthead and his Born Again or Burn Forever Disciples for Jesus to town to do the job. It will be an uphill climb for them when the closet doors of many gay people in the Snortlands burst open. Billy-Bob and his wife, Pinky Poo, will have another battle on their hands when Dimples Dufus, the heiress to the Mayflower fortune, arrives on the scene to reclaim her fortune.
You’ll also meet the hilariously bumbling, pothead psychiatrist, Doctor Wally Wacky-Wacko, who creates havoc for one of Sister Mary Olga’s favorite fellow nuns. Along with Mildred Mayflower, they become victims of his multi-colored pills that only turn them into zombies. The handsome and virile gay cowboy chef, Randy Cowboy, makes an important self-discovery about his never-ending sexual pursuits when he joins a twelve-step program called Sex Maniacs Notorious.
The irascible Martha Mayhem settles down into comfortable domesticity with her new life partner who happens to be her sister-in law. Martha still manages to stir up trouble on Dinkledorf Drive with her fellow enemies and neighbors, the prudish Priscilla Bunhead and the voluptuous Lula Mae Bunsaplenty. The question that remains is whether Lula Mae’s paramour, Jules Jesslike Pappas will put up with her continuing manipulative feminine wiles.
In between the laughs, Sister Mary Olga continues to dispense nuggets of spiritual wisdom during her classes in Beginner’s and Advanced Holiness. Just don’t take seats near the flatulent child named Fartley Dinkledorf or his lecherous one-hundred five year-old grandfather, Poopsy. The bottom line is that everyone is welcome in Sister Mary Olga’s classes. Join the diverse cast of zany characters for a joy ride that will tickle your funny bone until it aches.
My Thoughts:
Babes in Bucksnort is the continuation of the adventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude. It seems that certain busybodies of Bucksnort are not happy with the gay community in their happy little town. A story of deceit and manipulation as the powers that be try to get other residents of this fine little town to join their cause and remove the undesirable element. All this time Sister Mary Olga goes about trying to bring peace to everyone. She still likes to imbibe a little bit and goes to confession an awful lot. I think I enjoyed the first book more but Babes in Bucksnort continued the adventures while delving a bit more into the homosexual aspect of the community. This is a story that will have you laughing and rooting for the good guys, in this case the gay community. The crazy names of the residents still have me giggling. For a good read and a good laugh, I recommend both of the books about the little town of Bucksnort Wisconsin. I will have to see if I can find this little community as I live in Wisconsin..lol.
