Where Am I Now? True Stories of Girlhood and Accidental Fame by Mara Wilson

5.0

---

My only regret here is that I didn't get this as an audio book, as Mara Wilson has an amazing speaking voice. I would listen to her the phone book (they still exist; there's a pile in my lobby). I know a couple people said, when I mentioned I was reading this, "what could someone that age possibly have to say about her life?" Well, plenty. We connect with celebrities because we see I them something we recognize; something we are or something we want to be. I can see a lot of myself in Mara's stories, especially her desire to be a badass. I am glad she put these experiences out here for the wider world.
