Description
Life's a Fish and then you Fry
Growing up as a kid in Louisiana, AJ Joiner's all-time favorite thing was his grandmoh's Fish Fry. Now that he's all grown up in Atlanta, GA, AJ is working a job he doesn't like and living in a neighborhood he doesn't love – at first.
But when gentrification threatens to strip the community of its authentic charm, AJ hosts a Fish Fry to get to know his neighbors, and he begins to fall in love with each one, despite their eccentricities.
But this tight-knit community doesn't have the money to fend off rich developers and determined city planners, helped by one of their own: Eddison Fisher.
So AJ decides to throw a second Fish Fry to raise some cash. Despite increasingly-serious issues with his health and his marriage, the event is a huge success.
But it's still not enough.
Can AJ and his new friends throw a Fish Fry big enough to save their neighborhood?
Or will Eddison and his outsider allies destroy everything they love about their home?

Atlanta Fish Fry
by Anthony "AJ" Joiner
Life's a Fish and then you Fry!!OMG, I loved this book so much, I was laughing and loving how A.J. always saw the good side of life. His Grangmah from Louisanna, where he learned to love weekly fish fries and the memories of family gatherings to party, eat, drink, and dance.
Then in Atlanta, his neighborhood was full of colorful characters, yet he saw it as Grandma taught him your home is where you are".
A.J. decides to host a real "Louianna fish fry to meet his neighbors. It was a great success as it was Atlanta Fish fry". But, things happen. I will not add spoilers, but you better not miss this wonderfully written gem.
The best for last...AJ is Anthony"AJ" Joiner the author of the book!! Which makes the book much better than great.
