June- 2

I watch a show on Showtime called Secret Diary of a Call Girl. It was one of those nothing else to watch on TV so I watched the first episode kind of days and I really liked it. It gets a bit too soft core pornographic at times but I also love the main character is so feminist and in charge of her sexuality. She's also not this teeny tiny woman, she's a normal size healthy beautiful woman. Anyways at the beginning of each of the shows it says its based on a book so I of course added the book to my list. I read Belle Du Jour: Diary of an Unlikely Call Girl by Anonymous. Now the book was as cool as the TV show with some minor easy to be overlooked exceptions. The difficult thing for me to grasp was that the book states it is a true story based on a European call girl. Now in the TV show it feels like it could be based on some truth but that the TV writers have taken lots of liberties. The book though had this constant reminder that hey wait this is all true stuff. Very different perspective to read from. Overall though satisfied my curiosity as far as the show being based on a book so no regrets in reading it.

Tina Fey is one of my favorite comedians. I recently watched the first several seasons of her show 30 Rock and found myself laughing most of the time. Her biography Bossypants came out recently and I was thrilled to read it. It was funny, heartwarming, and just all around enjoyable to gain some insight on a woman I admire so much. Some of it was a bit distasteful for me but I was able to forgive those sections pretty quickly. If you love Ms Fey as much as I do, you will very much love learning more about her, her family, and her career.
