Delightful

This is a delightful memoir about some of Lauren's early career and the "reboot" on Netflix of Gilmore Girls. It was so interesting to learn a lot about the behind the scenes camaraderie of the cast and crew. A very good and well written story.

So Good!

Are you a Gilmore Girls fan? I absolutely loved the show! I have watched it start to finish quite a few times and also loved the movie, even though I wish they would have another one. I just love all the characters and thought it was so well written. Also if you didn’t know GG was a huge break for Melissa McCarthy! My parents had me super young so I can relate to the stages that Lorelai and Rory go through. Because of my love to Gilmore Girls, I think the world of Lauren Graham. She is just so good! When I saw she was in Parenthood, I was hooked. And wow Parenthood is also amazing. If you haven’t seen it, change that and immediately watch it. You will cry though, so be prepared. In her book Talking As Fast As I Can, she talks about her fabulous shows and how much she loved playing those characters. She talks about how she got started in acting and when she felt like she had actually “made it.” She gushes about her sweet love story with Peter Krause! They are the cutest and he is also in Parenthood! They are one of those couples that I always hope stays together because they are just perfect in my eyes. And because I talk nonstop and way to fast, I just know Lauren and I would get along wonderfully!
