Summary:
Mindy Kaling, from The
Office and The Mindy Project,
shares humorous glimpses into her life. Her essays explain what it is like to be
an actress and a writer. She shares stories of her college years, her dating
experiences, and what it is like to be a plus-size female who is also a
minority in showbiz.
Pros:
· You
do not need to know much about her to be able to laugh at this book! It is
filled with very relatable stories that would be funny no matter who they
happened to.
· All
of her essays are written so frankly that you really feel connected to Mindy.
Cons:
· A
couple of the essays got a bit long towards the end.
Final
Thoughts:
Great book if you are looking for something that will
make you laugh! It is very easy to get into even if you have little background
knowledge of Mindy Kaling; she explains what you need to know to find the book
funny. It’s a great read during your morning commute (that is, if you take the
bus…don’t read and drive!)
