Rezension von Lilli B.Sehr interessantes und bewegendes Buch!!
Rezension von NoraAs a big fan of the Gilmore Girls, this book had been on my reading list for a while. I didn't really know what to expect. What I found was the autobiography of an impressive woman. A trip to the Broadway scene of the 70s, to Hollywood and many other exciting stages of her life. The part about the Gilmore Girls was short, but the rest was so much fun that it ended up being an enjoyable experience. I can especially recommend the audiobook because she reads it herself.
Rezension von Monika What a fucking icon. I love Emily, I love Kelly more.
