This was a cute book, quick to read, and occasionally good for a giggle. The writer's personal experiences were the best part of this book (her gig singing show tunes at her aunt's funeral was quite funny) and they are thrown in with the twelve steps necessary to embrace yourself as a Grrl Genius.

This funny little book is on its way to a new reader in Poland. Enjoy!

Received today as a RABCK from Chellis. Thanks a lot! It now joins my Mount TBR! But I do hope it wont stay there long! ;)

I liked the book, it was just as Chellis describes it, a quick read and quite witty, too.

Bookray!

RELEASE NOTES:

Let the ray begin!

This arrived in the post this morning. I'm so excited, I've never got post from Poland before!

CAUGHT IN SHEFFIELD SOUTH YORKSHIRE UNITED KINGDOM

Ooops, that was me in the above post!

Got this in the mail earlier this week. Sorry I didn't journal sooner....it was a hectic week! Looking forward to reading this one!

This was pretty hilarious! I especially loved all her werid stories! Thanks for sharing!

7/13: I've PMed mrsordonez twice and am posting an ISO in the forum right now.
7/14: It seems that mrsordonez has some family things going on until the middle of August right now. I'll PM organizer to see what I should do.

Arrived safely, thanks for sharing! I'll journal more upon finishing. Funny, how it's travelled back to MO.

Just an update on the book, had been postponing reading it because I was last on the list. I see now that there are more people added, so I will bump it back up to the top, and will be the next one read and sent out. Thanks!

***ETA***11/22/06 Finishing last chapter now, should be mailed out after Thanksgiving.

First of all, I have to apologize for holding this book up. Although it has been my companion for quite a while, I just realized, while searching on this book to put my final journal entry, that I have another copy on my bookshelf. At least, this way, hubby is happy because I actually have "two down". Do any of you guys end up with multiple copies of a book? I guess Mt. TBR just gets out of hand and reproduces when you are not looking.

As far as the book is concerned, I was a bit disappointed. I guess I was looking more for a celebration of womanhood than an obsession with the author's butt. I'm glad Michon is happy in her mediocrity, but I guess I was a bit turned off by her ramblings on her divorce, her liposuction, etc. Her crazy old lady schtick was good, but not nearly long enough. The one part that got me laughing was the calls from the author's church lady to her mother for the bake sale. I guess I found the book to be too disconnected and maybe I was looking for something a bit less lighthearted. Not a bad book, but not "great" on my scale either. I will be mailing it out this weekend.

Got this in today.

It's next on my list!

This book was a quick read, and had some good laugh out loud moments. Some of the stories were great! This is a good solid 7.

RELEASE NOTES:

Sending this to Enidq to keep the ray moving!

I am looking forward to reading this book. I tried Mama Geena and have been a little disappointed. I have high hopes for Grrl Genius

Maybe I took the book a little too seriously but after a few chapters I really just wanted to put the book down and move on. I was actually repulsed by it. I am all for Grrl power, just not Ms. Michon's version of it.

I guess since I am at the end of this list this book will now find its way home. Thank you for offering your book.
