Becoming–Michelle Obama

Not going to lie, I thought this would be boring. I love Michelle Obama, she is a fun time for a First Lady. But because of BEING a First Lady, I thought she was going to have to shove a bunch of stuff under the rug. And she didn’t.  She was honest about how sheContinue reading “Becoming–Michelle Obama”

This Will Only Hurt a Little–Busy Philipps

I haven’t always loved Busy Philipps. Or rather, her characters. I’m looking at whoever she played on Dawson’s Creek. But I was also like early teens when I was watching that show, so really, I had no stake in the game.  BUT. I did love her in Freaks and Geeks. And Cougar Town was hilarious.Continue reading “This Will Only Hurt a Little–Busy Philipps”

Born a Crime–Trevor Noah

This man.  Born in South Africa, raised by a loving but hardheaded faith-driven woman, his father a Swiss-man that he barely had a relationship with because he was white and it was legitimately a crime for them to be family. This was another book that I listened to on audiotape because I got into aContinue reading “Born a Crime–Trevor Noah”

This is Me–Chrissy Metz

Classic. After I said I was going to write every day I immediately forgot and here we are four days later. But here we go. SPOILERS TO “THIS IS US” FIRST SEASON.  Now, I knew I was going to like this book immediately because I really like Chrissy Metz as a human. (Not that IContinue reading “This is Me–Chrissy Metz”

Review Dump

Hey there Sports Fans! So I realize that I’ve been M.I.A. constantly. It’s just who I am now. I’m so far behind that most of these are from LAST SUMMER. What. On. Earth. So I’m  going to just dump a handful of short reviews on you. The Bookstore—Deborah Meyler  This book didn’t get a fairContinue reading “Review Dump”

But Enough About Me–Burt Reynolds

I think I’m psychic sometimes.  Or I’m an evil witch who accidentally marks a person for death upon reading their autobiography.  Poor sweet dirty bird Burt Reynolds.  This book was so fun to read and incredibly interesting!  I love a good autobiography these days and I really enjoyed how this sounds how he talked. HisContinue reading “But Enough About Me–Burt Reynolds”

Tranny–Laura Jane Grace

It is essential that everyone reads this book.  If you have transgender friends and want to know more about their struggle of identity: read this book. If you don’t know anyone who is trans but want to know more about that side of the universe: read this book. If you like autobiographies: Read this book.Continue reading “Tranny–Laura Jane Grace”

How to Be a Bawse–Lilly Singh

Everyone should read this as a teenager.  It tells you important things on self confidence and what really matters in life.  I liked reading Lilly’s journey on being a YouTube star. (Which, if you haven’t seen anything she’s done: GO. Watch. She’s hilarious.)  She has some fantastic stories. And that’s all I’ve really got forContinue reading “How to Be a Bawse–Lilly Singh”

The Long Hard Road Out of Hell–Marilyn Manson

“What the fuck did I get myself into?” This is the thought that came up the most when I read this book.  Look, I know who Marilyn Manson is. I’ve heard some of his music, I’ve read stories about what the fuck he gets into. I know he has beef with Justin Beiber about someContinue reading “The Long Hard Road Out of Hell–Marilyn Manson”

I, Bificus–Bif Naked

Oh Biffy.  What has happened to you.  All the things. All the good and all the bad. And all the in-between things.  I’ve loved Bif since I was teeny little preteen and so much of my early teens was filled with her music. And I’m so glad to finally read her words on the thingsContinue reading “I, Bificus–Bif Naked”
