Managing Expectations by Minnie Driver

4.0

---

I have been a fan of Minnie Driver from the days of "Circle of Friends" I kind of felt like because we both had such unruly curly hair she was my kindred spirit in some ways. After having finished the "I'm Glad My Mom Died" from someone who has suffered so much - reading Minnie Driver's words was refreshing. I still feel like we would be friends after having read her book and I kind of love that she didn't really throw any celebs under the bus or name drop or anything - she just seemed normal (with the exception of Matt Damon and Matt was pretty much a jerk to her when they broke up so I say - good job on that one!). Anyway - just snippets of her life - definitely a memoir I left having more questions than answers but yet the little insights given were just refreshing and honest and real and made me think that pretty much any normal human can write and has had an interesting life.
