How Did You Get This Number





by Sloane Crosley

Didn't love this.  It was short stories about the author.  Some of the stories were funny.  Liked the one about all the family pets, although I didn't like the way it ended.  I guess I might have liked this better if the stories weren't about her.  I mean, what made her think writing stories about her life would matter to people who don't know her?  I read it... I read a review somewhere... Isn't that the way it always works?  I read a review somewhere that makes me think I want to read it, but then I never remember where I read the review!  Let's be honest, most of the reviews I read are in Time Magazine or Entertainment Weekly.  But it's also possible that I saw it on the library website when I first got my Nook and was looking for things to read.  It was ok.  Not like I'm mourning the time I lost while reading it.  I wouldn't warn someone away from reading this, but I wouldn't recommend it either.

2 out of 5 stars.
