Welcome to Litsy!

Lauren Graham is just one of those actresses who I can‘t help feeling fond of (I watched Gilmore Girls at a formative age) and while I‘m forever saying I‘m not much of a NF/memoir/essay reader… it‘s almost the end of February and I‘ve read 3 books by Lauren Graham…

Works brilliantly as an audio book as it‘s read by Lauren herself.

Wicked words! #Wickedwords #writer #hotel @AsYouWish

Lauren Graham's books may not be the deepest autobios, but nice little snapshots into her life that any fan of hers would enjoy. My favorite chapters were "But I played one on TV" where she talks about how her life has been scrutinized for how 'motherhood' has or hasn't played a role in her reality. Also "Forever 32" because I'm currently 32 and loved hearing about how her perspective has changed since she was that age.

Cute and fun for anyone who loves Lauren Graham. Her books are always a light and relaxing read and I enjoyed this one like the rest!

Book #77
4.5/5
Another great collection of essays by the fast talking TV mom (and so much more) Lauren Graham? Count me in every time. A big part of Lorelai is Lauren herself, and I love Lorelai, so it's a win-win.
As always, when consuming celebrity memoirs, I recommend the audio book.

I finished this up weeding today. It‘s short and sweet and read by Lauren ❤️❤️

Started today and have I told you how much I love Lauren Graham ❤️❤️ I was seriously heartbroken when I heard she and long time love Peter Krause had split

Time to catch up on all my June #bookspin books. Listed to this one over audio. It was a quick, easy listen. I loved Graham in Gilmore Girls & Parenthood. If you‘re a fan of her work then it‘s a good listen. I enjoyed listening to her insights & stories about being & becoming an actress. #Nonfiction2023 prompt: Big Yellow Taxi

As a fan of Lauren I enjoyed this quick read. 4/5 💫

3½ ✨

A fun, light-hearted listen that made me smile. And honestly that was all I was looking for when I pressed play on this one.
I did however liked 'Talking as Fast as I Can' more. This was a good add-on just maybe a bit too short.

Another fun collection of essays from Lauren Graham 🙂

My only gripe is I would like more mention of Gilmore Girls - a whole book about her experience on the show would be just fine with me 😄

I enjoyed listening to Lauren tell her stories.

She was supposed to be at a book festival I'm attending later this month but is no longer on the schedule...such a bummer.

Lauren Graham always seems like she‘d be a fun person to know. She tells her stories in a breezy way that I like. I also like how she protects the privacy of the people she knows while still getting at the heart of the story. The next book of hers, I‘m going with audio as I think she‘d be good at that. I listened to Jackson Browne instead of a book on my #audiowalk.

Settling in with Lauren Graham for a nice, relaxing, and quiet evening. I know everyone knows her from The Gilmore Girls, but I didn‘t watch that much. Instead, I liked her in Parenthood.

Just what the doctor ordered. I won‘t remember much of it, but I do feel as if I spent time with a friend, chuckling now and again. She‘s delightful.

After finishing After Sappho and before heading into the two TOB23 books I plan to read I need a bit of easy reading. Bring it on, Lauren.

Lauren Graham is always entertaining. This short collection of anecdotes is just as much fun as her other essay collections and I enjoyed my quick read. It's always best to listen to her books as I just love how her personality comes shining through so well in her narration. I'm not typically one who loves random little stories about random celebrity lives, but I'll always make an exception for her.

Spending time listening to Lauren gab is like my fave Brooklyn bakery - it‘s just fun. There‘s nothing really ground breaking to be gained from this little book, just funny stories & occasional life lessons. If you‘re a fan of Gilmore Girls, she‘s basically Lorelei in real life. If you haven‘t seen Gilmore Girls and also are a book nerd, I highly recommend it. 💖

I enjoyed this one, though not as much as Talking as Fast as I Can. I do want to go and watch Gilmore Girls again now lol

Terra, as usual, just wishes I‘d put the phone/book down and pet her.

I absolutely love listening to Lauren Graham narrate her own interesting stories. She seems so personable and always makes me smile. You do not have to be a Gilmore Girls fan, though I very much am, to truly enjoy her stories.

So fun!!

I would follow Lauren Graham to the ends of the earth, I adore her so. This was nothing earth shattering but made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I just ❤️ her.

I'll agree with other reviewers that this isn't her strongest collection. As a fan though, listening to her tell stories about her life is always a great escape. I highly recommend the audiobook because she reads it and that just makes the experience more enjoyable in my opinion.

Listened to this relatively short memoir while cleaning and stitching over the weekend. The latest from Graham, I found this entertaining enough with a few gems folded in. Not earth shatteringly good or insightful, but if you‘re a fan of her or her shows, you will most likely enjoy hearing her unique voice again.

Thanks to Libro.fm for this free audiobook!

Least favorite of all her books so far. If it wasn't audio (her own narration) I would have abandoned it.
