As 2015 comes to a close, I have been reading plenty of
biographies/memoirs penned by the stars. I will continue to do so and review these as
time permits, but definitely by the end of 2015. The tab name where these book reviews will be
located has been changed from “Books from Famous People” to “Penned by Stars”
(please make note).
Contributing writer Freddy Ramos is also doing the same and
is currently reading Half a Life by Darin Strauss. This was a required
read by his mother (me) that before he gets his driver’s license he read Half
a Life. I read it and was floored. I think it should be required reading
for all teens in the process of receiving their driver’s license.
I am currently reading the funny Bossypants by Tina
Fey and loving and laughing my ass off the entire way. OMG! I love Tina Fey; she
is so hilarious. After I complete this, I will read Amy Poehler’s, Yes,
Please.
Lastly, I will finish off the year with my newest obsession the
talented writer and amazing actress, Lena Dunham and her bestselling memoir, Not
That Kind of Girl.
You are welcome to read along with me, as I take in the end
of the year with some lighthearted reads from strong, funny women! If you don’t
fancy the books mentioned, I welcome you to read along with contributing
writer, Freddy Ramos and his end of year read, Half a Life by Darin
Strauss.
Whatever you may choose, may you just choose to read. As you
know, here at Anthem Book Review our motto is #smartpeopleread.

Happy Reading
