 I'm in an audiobook phase, so I'm kind of reading memoirs at random from Libby as I come across them. I've seen Davis in a few things, but didn't know much about her life, other than that she was once married to Jeff Goldblum (and only because my Dad once described him as "the guy with the glasses who was married to Geena Davis" because all of my Dad's references are somehow 30 years old).

All that aside, this was a decent read. I like memoirs read by the author, so this was fun. It definitely felt a bit all over the place though. Some things, like Davis' early modelling days are covered in great detail, while others that I was really interested in, like Beetlejuice are almost skipped over.
