Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark by Cassandra Peterson

dark funny informative lighthearted medium-paced
This woman has LIVED. Mercy, the first half of this book could be subtitled All of the Famous Men I Didn't Sleep With--And a Few I Did, and the second half could be a cautionary tale about the paradox of being a woman: be sexy but also if you're sexy we're not going to take you seriously and make your life difficult for you.

Memoirs are difficult to gauge sometimes because we are all the heroes of our own stories. That said, I hope Peterson has found nothing by happiness. I hope that she has found a way to be financially solvent while doing what she wants to do.

What a freakin' ride. Also? I can't look at Tom Jones or Andy Williams--among others--the same ever again.
