This is such a quick and fun read. I had never seen Ellen Skrmetti's Instagram content before reading this book. As soon as I finished, I started to follow her. I think the way she talks to Jesus and about Jesus is amazing. It manages to be funny and poignant also.

Hilarious. Just what I needed.
Thanks to author, publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

Hey, Jesus, It's Me was billed as a fun, comedic book because well, the author is a comedian. Problem is, there is very little humor in this book. It's more of a regular old memoir, which wasn't what I signed up for.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC for an honest review.

Thank you #Netgalley for the copy!

So many funny stories from Ellen! She talks about growing up in the south and how she wants to be close to family but not too close for a quick pop in. Quick and easy read like your chatting with a girlfriend over a cup of coffee. Though there are religious undertones, hence the title, the stories outweigh it. Don't let it steer you away from this read!

Some tears—Lots of Laughter!
No matter your faith, this book shines a light on our daily challenges and giving and accepting grace in ourselves and others. Highly recommend!

For those of you who enjoy Ellen Skrmetti's Instagram shorts, this book will be a little different. It's far more memoir than comedic commentary. It's sweet and Southern. If you are religious and from the South, I believe you will really enjoy it. Very short - could easily be read in one sitting.

Congrats to Ellen Skrmetti on the publication of her new book Hey, Jesus, It's Me! This is a fun book that will make you laugh, cry, and laugh some more...and maybe call your sisters or girlfriends and share some of the quips from the book! Her southern opinions on mamas, menopause, and menus reads like you're chatting with a girlfriend on the porch with a glass of wine!

Grab yourself a good bottle of wine, a comfy spot and cozy blanket. This book is like talking to a good friend and if you don't live in the south will make you wish you did. Born in raised in the south this book made me laugh, cry, and smile appreciating our uniqueness in how things are done and our love for Jesus. May the world get just a small glimpse of what makes me proud to call Mississippi home.

Ellen is a Jen Lancaster with a sprinkling of Jesus. This book is good for a laugh and a healthy reminder that no matter the reason, it’s always good to keep the line of communication open with Jesus.

I enjoyed the author’s fresh – and southern – perspective on conversing with Jesus. While her sketches offer comedic relief, it also reminds women that they can find themselves conversing with Jesus throughout their everyday lives. He meets us where we are and is there to listen to us no matter the reason. I found myself laughing out loud at parts and enjoyed the doses of southern wisdom. This was a fun, relatable read.

Thank you to Ellen Skrmetti, Worthy Publishing and NetGalley for an advance e-copy for an honest review.
