Life As I Blow It: Tales Of Love, Life & Sex . . . Not Necessarily In That Order (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
I gave it two stars for a couple reasons. 1. it was an entertaining read. 2. it felt messy and real (which I like). Without these it would have been terrible! However the ending chapter felt entirely different from the rest. It felt sort of like Jerry Springers final thought at the end of the show. It was out of place and had a tone that was entirely opposite of the preceding chapters. It just felt fake and forced. Other than the last chapter, it was a quick fun read. This book was OK, it wasn't really funny despite the fact that Sarah Colonna is a comedienne. Mostly its just kind of musings about how she got where she is today and all the dudes she f*cked along the way. It kind of amazed me how horrible she is at relationships, I honestly think it amazes her too. The voice is so matter of fact, she lands a few jokes here and there, but it mostly reads like a diary or factual re-telling of the events. Anyway, I find it perversly entertaining to read about "famous" people and their real lives but I'm sure that's not everyone's cup of tea. It was interesting to me reading this and Adam Carolla's "Not Taco Bell Material" how thin the line between famous and normal shmoe really is. All in all, this is a quick and entertaining read.
