Scrappy Little Nobody–Anna Kendrick

Why is she the most adorable person to ever adorable?  Just a really funny, well written autobiography about the kicky little life of one of our most favourite Hollywood actresses.  Her stories were cute, and I really appreciated how honest she was about what it feels like to be an actress in the limelight. LikeContinue reading “Scrappy Little Nobody–Anna Kendrick”

Summers Read Part 2

I’m backed up. Not…not in the bowel department. I don’t know why I feel like I needed to clarify that when you’ll see in a minute that I mean book reviews. Either way. Here we are. In The Woods–Tana French This book was total trickery.  In that I didn’t realize it was a series. IContinue reading “Summers Read Part 2”

Summer Reads

Hello Puny Humans: I have a pile of reviews building that go as far back as two summers ago. Yeesh. Here’s the thing with life: Stuff happens to you and then other things are forgotten about. These books weren’t one of those things, but reviewing them was. Typical me. But here you go! Time toContinue reading “Summer Reads”

Through the Storm–Lynne Spears

You read that right. I read Britney Spears’ moms book. The funny thing about that is: 1) I could care less about anything Lynne Spears has to say. and 2) I found this book in a thrift store (surprise surprise) and found a ticket stub for a flight somewhere with a girls name on itContinue reading “Through the Storm–Lynne Spears”

sTori Telling–Tori Spelling

Okay look…I can’t explain why I picked this one up. I had zero interest in Tori Spelling, her career, or anything that’s ever happened to her. I bought this at a thrift store because I like to read incredibly random biographies now. And this took the cake on random because I had never really givenContinue reading “sTori Telling–Tori Spelling”

Paddle Your Own Canoe–Nick Offerman

If Mindy Kaling is my spirit animal, Nick Offerman is my disgruntled guardian angel. He has a special way of speaking and writing that is so inviting I’m looking forward to his other works. This book is so chock-full of wisdom that you come away a better person. Or at the very least, with someContinue reading “Paddle Your Own Canoe–Nick Offerman”

Why Not Me?–Mindy Kaling

As I’ve said before: Mindy is my spirit animal. I had a theme going for a short time where I was reading books by thoughtful but filthy minded and mouthed women who tell it like it is and actually connected with me on a level some authors never reach with me. Mindy always gets throughContinue reading “Why Not Me?–Mindy Kaling”

Very Good Lives–J.K. Rowling

Sometimes I feel the need to curl up in J.K. Rowling’s writing like a security blanket. Harry Potter is obviously my favourite book series, even though I promised not to read it for five years after the movies were over I still broke that promise to myself and snuck them in a few times whenContinue reading “Very Good Lives–J.K. Rowling”

The Short Stack.

Good morning everyone! I’m clearing house of the tiny reviews. So here’s four to take a gander at. Summer of My Amazing Luck—Miriam Toews Literally only picked this up because I knew it was set in the summer. (Book challenge #14-A Book Set in the Summer [26BooksWithBringingUpBurns 2015.]) What a treat it was though! IContinue reading “The Short Stack.”

How to Be a Woman–Caitlin Moran

Morning all! This book is truly amazing. I borrowed it from my sister out of nowhere and I was pleasantly surprised. Borrowing is a little ridiculous since I have roughly 10000 books in my room so what the hell am I doing reading other peoples book lists?! But here we are. And I’m glad IContinue reading “How to Be a Woman–Caitlin Moran”
