    getting drafted did secure me the love of my life, it really did completely tear apart my whole world. I had huge plans, enormous goals for the rest of my life.

I had planned on going to law school…

This book is fast moving, but definitely engaging. I recommend this book because it is written with a comical style and keeps you interested at all times. Bossypants stood out to me because of the style that Tina Fey…

Both possibilities for her ending are equally unsettling, the kind of unknown that sends chills down one's spine, for even if she is taken to safety, her life has been folded over so many times, reinvented then destroyed, that the chances of her becoming the woman she…
