Mara Wilson has a really conversational. easy to read writing style, which makes it easy to blitz through this collection of short essays about her life. There really isn't much to them - a lengthy chapter on choir club drama when Mara was at college, another on this one time she was really horny but then she had a one night stand and felt better - all pretty unremarkable stuff. But the chapters were light and competently written, and fun to read. I certainly came away from the book having enjoyed the author's company.
