![]() ![]() My favorite part of the book though was when the paper reporter asked Gladys to come to Classy Cakes and write a review. ![]() There were many great events in this story. All Gladys wanted was to be the winner of this writing assignment! ![]() The assignment was a contest and a prize was to be published in the newspaper. She wrote…and she wrote.and she wrote.and after what seemed like forever, she finally finished. Since cooking was on the can't do side, she started writing her assignment. The next day at school her assignment was to write about "what you want to do when you grow up?" After school, Gladys looked at a list of what you can't do and what you can do. When her parents learned of the fire she was banned from the kitchen for six months. But one day, she caught the kitchen on fire. Let's cook together with Gladys! You will enjoy reading about her in All Four Stars by Tara Dairman. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Kristen's long term boyfriend in the military. She was selfish, self absorbed and manipulative! She was such a bitch to the men in her life. She lied to her boyfriend, and to Josh repeatedly. Next she wasn't honest, and she did indeed care about what people think about her. Lets just address that first because OMFG I'm sick of reading about these so called perfect women, and then seeing the author compare them to other women who are "exhausting" or "crazy." Why do we need to put down other women in order to boost the heroine?! ![]() She was a unicorn, tucked in the body of an attractive woman with a great ass." "An honest, no-drama woman who didn't bullshit and drank beer and cussed and didn't care about what people thought about her. Now.Firstly Kristen.OMG when will authors realise that we don't want to read about 'the cool girl?' Kristen was described as an amazing girl who doesn't like drama, doesn't wear make up, ate cheeseburgers, drank beer, and was actually labelled a unicorn four times in the book. I liked Josh, Kristin was funny, and the book spoke about periods and infertility, which isn't really ever addressed in other contemporary romances. So plus points first, before I get carried away in incandescent rage.ġ) This was mostly well written, and the writing seemed to flow quite well throughout the book.Ģ) The start wasn't bad. JOSHUA AND TYLER DESERVED BETTER! WOMEN WITH INFERTILITY DERSERVED BETTER! BRANDON DERSERVED BETTER! ![]() ![]() ![]() “We have been developing the Bad Blood … That is still in development, and so that was the first person in. She worshipped Step Brothers, so when her agent said, ‘Who do you want to meet with?’ I’m sure they weren’t so happy to hear her answer: ‘The guy who did Step Brothers.’ So I’ve known Jen for a long time and have always been dying to work with her. “One of the first meetings she ever did in Los Angeles was after her first movie was with me, and … I think she was 17, she might’ve been 18. “In the case of Jen Lawrence, I’ve known Jen for a while,” said McKay of working with the star. RELATED: Jennifer Lawrence Joins Adam McKay’s Don’t Look Up at Netflix ![]() While on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, McKay confirmed that the Bad Blood film based upon faux-entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes, the founder and CEO of Theranos, is still in development and will star Lawrence. ![]() Adam McKay and Jennifer Lawrence recently worked together on the Netflix comedy Don’t Look Up, and they have even more projects planned for the future. ![]() ![]() I expected the whole book to be full of poems like that. It is a beautiful love poem in its own right. I did find what I was looking for, not in the title poem “An Aromantic’s Love Song to the Populace,” but the next poem, called “The Only Love Poem I’ll Ever Actually Mean.” That poem is a love song to a best friend, a love song to platonic love. ![]() The short volume of poetry An Aromantic’s Love Song to the Populace by Niko Bouvier caught me by the title because I have a great desire for more love songs to be in the keys I know: to talk about friends and family and places rather than romantic love. I don’t read much poetry, but when I do, it is because the title of the book has caught my attention. ![]() |
