This is Portia de Rossi's autobio. Way different from your typical celeb bios as this one was very focused on her sexuality and eating disorders, especially the eating. Of course, in your typical celeb bios, blame the parents to a degree! Her mother kept telling her to loose weight and she wasn't skinny enough. Gee, I wonder what that is going to ( Read more... )

The final book in Lauren Conrad's series! Cricky, what even happened? As with books like these, all I know is that everyone lived happily ever after. The girls were pretty strong in this one and finally took no bullshit from anyone and just did there own thing, which was really nice to read. You didn't even care about the villains anymore because ( Read more... )

I am on a total roll with super creepy books about women lately. This always happens. I accidentally pick up books that have a sort of common theme for a few weeks and then switch themes. I don't even mean too! Or maybe it's just the crappy high school in me, the whole "compare and contrast" thing we always had to do, which I hated. Oy. The shit ( Read more... )

Christ, this book took me forever and a day to read. The pages where so thin, so from the outside, it didn't look any longer then like 3-400 pages, but it was nearly (or more?) then 700 pages! Christ. Luckily, there was lots of dialogue, so that moved it a long well. But throw in too many characters and a plot that was all over the place in my book ( Read more... )

I am on a (kind of horrible) roll of picking up books with timid girls and abusive boys. This is the 2nd (of 3) that I picked up and read right in a row. Not the best idea when you live alone. But then, it's just a story, it's not real (sort of). This is Nick Sparks latest and while I picked up a lot of his stuff while overseas because it was just ( Read more... )

Ohmigod, this book creeped the fuck out of me. It was totally like an episode of SVU mixed with Criminal Minds, which I like both, but really need to stop watching. (I'm not ( Read more... )

The third and final book in The Hunger Games series. While this book was better then the 2nd, it was not as good as the first. I was just too confused at this point with all the names. I don't do well with weird names (big reasons why I don't like "magical"-y books) and this book, by this point is full of them. Plus, I feel like in some parts of ( Read more... )

Blach, for chick lit this book was totally boring and not up my alley at all. I am sure if I could remember Gatsby or even liked it, I might have like this book more as books like these are just updated versions of the old, but I didn't and don't, so this book and story didn't mean much to me. Takes place in a short time out in the Hamptons with a ( Read more... )

I totally forgot what this book was about, but once I looked up the recap on Amazon, I totally remember now. A family, small town drama-thriller for those with a less attention span then I. Family with a son who seems to be going all rocker-emo and dating a "bad" girl in town. Girl disappears and the town is flashed back to memories of a similar ( Read more... )

I like reading books about people I think I like, but don't know much about. When Olivia Munn showed up on THE DAILY SHOW, I was like, man, she looks familiar, she's been in stuff before. And she had, but oddly nothing I had seen. I am a nerd (compared to the rest of my family) but I had never turned on G4 before (unless BACK TO THE FUTURE was on) ( Read more... )
