Spare by Prince Harry

I am sorry that I have not been publishing my reviews. I am a few months behind on reviews of the books that I have been reading. I am going to see about catching up the next few weeks! My review: I read this book so quickly. It was nice to see the proceeds of …

“Finding Me” by Viola Davis

I read this book in less than a week. You lose yourself in her stories. There were no pictures in the novel. I also listened to the audiobook which was narrated by Viola. Her life is not like a typical celebrity’s. She did not grow up in the industry at all. This book was powerful. …

“Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing” by Matthew Perry

It only took me 2 days to read this book. It was a little repetitive. It also is not linear. He jumps all over the place. It was hard to figure out when things happened until he talks about a TV/movie project. At that point, I would Google the date.   I found him to …

Review of “I’m Glad My Mom Died” by Jennette McCurdy

I did not know who Jeanette was before reading this book. I am 40 years old, so this was after my pre-teen years. But I am glad that I read this memoir. The memoir was honest and raw. She dives into some pretty heavy topics and abuse in her life. She is very brave being …

Beyond the Wand: The Magic and Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard by Tom Felton

I was lucky enough to get an ARC of Tom Felton’s memoir! Tom Felton’s memoir is so easy to read. It is like listening to your friend tell you stories instead of a memoir! All his stories were interesting and some were funny. He is a great storyteller. A lot of his childhood memories made …

“Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body” by Roxane Gay

Roxane Gay is a fantastic writer. I devoured this book. I read it in the doctor’s office. Someone asked me about what I was reading. I stated to them that it was  a very raw and honest memoir. I highly recommend this book. I feel as though I should not give it a starred review …

“Everything Is Ok” by Debbie Tung

This book is heavy but done so in a light-hearted way. It is hard to talk about depression, anxiety, and social anxiety with a little bit of humor and light-heartedness. After reading this book, I really had hope and joy. There were very dark times but it was also uplifting. It is hard to explain! …

Review “Yes Please” by Amy Poehler

This book is funny. I think that is the part that I liked the most. It was not the honest and raw book that I was expecting. Although, she does discuss a skit that she felt bad about on SNL. She issued an apology for it. But for the most part, this is not the …

Review “Mean Baby” by Selma Blair

I rated this book s 3.5 to 4-star review. I have to attempt, I am not a fan of Selma. I picked this book up, because I thought it would be an interesting read. I do follow her on Instagram. She has inspired many people with her incredible story of strength. After reading this memoir, …

“Out of the Corner” By Jennifer Grey

5 Stars! I really enjoyed Jennifer Grey in her many works throughout the years. I mean what person has not watched Ferris Bueller’s Day Off or Dirty Dancing?  I knew that I was going to read this memoir as soon as I could. There has been a lot of buzz about it. I read about some of her …
