Nice collection of essays, although it was compiled before the end of the series, so doesn't really feel complete....

A little redundant, but worth it for the final chapter about her father, Eddie Fisher.

A nice, thoughtful, and serious look at horror movies of the 70's and early 80's, although the amount of attention given to Dan O'Bannon is kind of weird.

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

Unfortunately, the writing is not as compelling or entrancing as the photographs that inspired. But I'd say it's worth a pick up, just for the pics alone. Also, the ending is frustrating as it's quite obviously a set-up for a sequel, and thus really ...more

Anita Loos
“So Dorothy said we might was well go out to Fountainblo with Louie and Robber if Louie would take off his yellow spats which were made of yellow shammy skin with pink pearl buttons. Because Dorothy said, 'Fun is fun but no girl wants to laugh all the time.”
Anita Loos, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: The Illuminating Diary of a Professional Lady

Carol Matthau
“Worrying about clothes, though, is easy to understand. When it comes to clothes, people are very competitive, especially if they're movie stars. I think every smart woman devises a look for herself. Margaret Sullivan had a look: romantic, young, pretty, smart. Katharine Hepburn made a look for herself as this wonderful old salty character. Marilyn Monroe had a look; it was like, "Fuck me with sadness"...”
Carol Matthau, Among the Porcupines
