Booking Through Thursday



Booking Through Thursday
What are you reading right now? What made you choose it? Are you enjoying it? Would you recommend it? (And, by all means, discuss everything, if you’re reading more than one thing!)


Right now, I'm reading "Marrying George Clooney" by Amy Ferris. I chose it because I loved the title, and wanted to know more about the woman who is trying to steal my man. Okay, I don't actually know George Clooney. I know, right! Shocks everyone when I admit that. Anyway, would I recommend it? Well, I'm having a hard time getting through it so probably not, but to give Ms Ferris her due, I've been pretty stressed lately and would likely have trouble focusing on any book in my collection. What I don't love about it is what I usually love about memoirs: the honesty. Ms Ferris tells all, and I mean all, in ways that make me uncomfortable. Especially some of the bits about her mother. The "dressing room" passage just seemed to me to be way too much information. I don't consider myself a prude but I have to say, some things just don't need to be shared.

  1. I never heard of this book. but hmmm...sounds interesting. I like memoirs, but not into Clooney. I hope you can finish it, it is tough to get through books that are less than stellar.

  7. I'd seen the title but I didn't know what the book was about. I was thinking maybe a comedy with that title! Never thought it would be a memoir.
