MY THOUGHTS

I love reading books that tell stories of how people get where they are. Memoirs and Biographies are some of my favorite things to read. This book made me laugh. I had no idea how many hats a make up artist has to fill. They can be counselers, therapists, make up artists, and so much more. She sheds a light on how Hollywood can be. She gives the good, the bad and the ugly. I love the stories she tells. I would love to sit and have a drink with her. 

Thank you to Mascot Books for allowing me to read this book. all thoughts are my own.
