After reading the horror show that is ‘A Simple Favor’ I needed a HUGE laugh and a promise of no incest. Enter Jenny Lawson. I had read one of her other books so I knew what I was getting into. The issue I had with this one is simple: I listened to it on audiobookContinue reading “Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things—Jenny Lawson”

Dead Ever After–Charlaine Harris
What an ending. This was the very last in the Sookie Stackhouse books and I was actually rooting AGAINST Eric. Which is unheard of. That man was a real dink by the end of this series. Which I guess was to be expected because he’s a vampire. But all in all, after reading the entireContinue reading “Dead Ever After–Charlaine Harris”
I Like You Just the Way I Am–Jenny Mollen
Oh hi there! Just wanted to check in. Say hey. If you’re on instagram you’ve likely seen this smash hit of a human being. She’s insane. And loveable. And insane. But like, in a fun way that makes you want to sit near her while she tells you stories in all her twirling chaotic glory. Continue reading “I Like You Just the Way I Am–Jenny Mollen”
You Deserve a Drink–Mamrie Hart
*Note: This was written early January 2018.* After a dark and gloomy beginning to the year (reading Slaughterhouse Five) I figured it was time to start a book that was guaranteed lightheartedness. Mamrie is a well-known Youtuber who makes drinks on her channel (called You Deserve a Drink) that are fun and themed and soundContinue reading “You Deserve a Drink–Mamrie Hart”
The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo–Amy Schumer
Two for two on surprise book back to back. First Kris Jenner, and now Amy Schumer. So I originally intended to read this book and get it off my shelf because I kept seeing the cover and being like ‘UGH. Amy Schumer! Stop fucking staring at me.” But what I ended up with was aContinue reading “The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo–Amy Schumer”
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”
I Shouldn’t Drink While I Read
Love in a Nutshell—Janet Evanovich and Dorien Kelly Guys, I’m so far behind this from last summer. Yeesh. Which means, that I also kind of don’t remember it because during the summer I have a tendency to read books that are lighthearted and silly, and what I lovingly refer to as “nonsense books”. I loveContinue reading “I Shouldn’t Drink While I Read”
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”
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”
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.”
