This was like the tragic version of Rob Lowe‘s Stories I Only Tell My Friends. A lot of his stories feature famous family and neighbors. Some of his stories had me thinking, why would you tell that? But others were engaging. The long chapter about his sister‘s murder and the court case that followed held my interest the most. They didn‘t get the justice they deserved.

#25Alive #favBk24 Griffin Dunne wrote a really interesting book about a really interesting family. It is one of those books I wish I could read again for the first time.😁I‘m going to cheat a bit , I found it almost to be a 3 way tie ! As for fiction , Liz Moores God Of The Woods & The Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors are excellent!

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I really liked God of the Woods! Blue Sisters is in my list! 1mo

The Friday Afternoon Club by Griffin Dunne

Hmm. I guess if you care about him you should read this. If you want to know about his father, Joan Didion, Jackie and Jack Kennedy, Carrie Fisher or the names dropped here, you should read something else. This is sort of The Travels of a B(?) Actor.
