Her first book has an impressive 2.5 stars on Amazon.

Here are the highlights of some of my favorite reviews:

"What kind of publishing house would allow this nonsense?"

"I couldn't put this great, bathroom read down fast enough."

"I got this as a joke gift, and it got the laugh I was hoping for - FIVE STARS FOR THAT! I have no idea if the content is any good, who cares."

"Sadly, this book seems to have been written by a child."

"Please don't be stupid like I was and pay good money for this poorly written sophomoric rendition."

"Trash is as trash does."

Arthur Miller in a pretty well known confrontation before he was casting for a movie he was directing. He literally told her she's just pretty, on top of emotionally abusing her, and that she would never make it as an actress. There's a phenominal documentary on Marilyn Monroe on HBO from a book of her hand written letters, fully sourced.

I recommend it. It's as beautiful as it is heartbreaking. You also learn how many producers thought the same and made her sleep with them to get parts, which wasn't (or isnt) rare in Hollywood. You also get to learn at how desperately she wanted to be an actress and not a sex icon but the men surrounding her aside from Joe DiMaggio, never treated her even remotely serious and lead her on as many times as they could.

I also recommend the book "Marilyn Monroe: Her Life In Her Own Words..." by George Barris. Im on my phone and i dont know how to directly link it. http://www.amazon.com/Marilyn-Words-Monroes-Revealing-Photographs/dp/0806531231

Edit: A.M. told M.M. before casting began, not after.

Tl;dr: in a shocking twist, a pretty woman in Hollywood has run in with terrible men and has her dreams crushed because she's just pretty.

I read Pioneer Girl by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and that book was like two different books combined with all the annotations. It was very interesting though with all the behind the scenes info, particularly with her daughter and how much she had to do with the Little House books.

OMG! She's being a bucket dipper. My DD was like this (well she still is once in a while). At her preschool, the teachers introduced this book.
I got it for use to read at home too, to reinforce it and it's helped us soo much!

Now when she starts to act up, I just ask her if she thinks doing/saying X,Y,Z is being "bucket filler or a bucket dipper"?

ETA: In general, it helps if you get them to think about what they've done/said instead of saying "don't do that or don't say that". When you throw it back on them and ask them to stop and think about what they're about to do or what they've done, it resonates with them and stays with them a lot longer. So in your niece's case of name calling, I'd ask her if she's ever been called a name before and how did that make her feel? Or, if she hasn't been called a name, maybe a friend has or a tv character has or someone in a story...
It's not foolproof and it won't stop them from misbehaving or acting up but we've found with our DD that even when she's done something wrong, she acknowledges that she should have been more thoughtful.

There’s a book called Dog Heaven that my mom gives everyone who has to say bye to their pup. It’s comforting too ❤️

(n.b. the blurred book that teresa is in front of here is building stories by chris ware, which is a graphic novel story collection that takes place in a single apartment building and is presented in a variety of forms [a book, a fake newspaper, etc.]. i own one of the pieces, which is about a woman with one leg. it's an absolutely stunning piece of literary work and i recommend it to anyone. i wish it had a thematic link to tre and her story that would make it grimly ironic, but it's all about people's quiet, contemplative interior lives so its only connection to teresa is in representing her exact opposite.)

I know the term 'snog' is not because of this book, but when I see the word now it's all I can think about: Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging: Confessions of Georgia Nicolson

Freedom from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: A Personalized Recovery Program for Living with Uncertainty

Specifically what she referred me to is that in the book the author has a bunch of example "exposure scripts", it's like an exercise to ease obsessions through exposure therapy. If you wanna talk more about it PM me my dude

oh man when i used to take adderal i would write fucking essays on shit like this (anything to avoid that paper or test!!!)

im really into old families/money too. it's so interesting. you NEED to read this book on huguette clark (http://www.amazon.com/Empty-Mansions-Mysterious-Huguette-Spending/dp/0345534530) so so good. she died at 104 with millions left and mansions she hadnt seen in 80 years!! her family story is also very interesting. she was a product of her fathers second marriage and he was already in his late 60s when she was born. she lived to 104. so her father was born a few decades before the civil war and she lived to see obama elected. so crazy

First of all, if you drive a lot, a McKenzie roll http://www.amazon.com/Original-McKenzie-Lumbar-Roll-OPTP/dp/B000H48WYA?th=1 for your car seat helps a lot. If you're like me and like the seat way back, you need to move it up closer so you're sitting pretty much straight up. One of the sciatica symptoms is if you almost cry getting out of the car, you've got it. The exercises I did were:lying on my stomach on the floor, slowly push up with your arms and arch your back, then slowly back down (should take 20-30 seconds per rep) 15 reps. Then lying on my back with feet in the air (like an L shape) slowly raise your bottom and lower back off the floor. Don't really engage your abs, just try to stretch your lower back. These were recommended to me by a massage therapist friend (after a massage, which might help), I am in no way an authorized medical advice dispenser. Sitting on a medicine ball (instead of a chair at my computer) helped a lot too.

It took about a month to get it better, but I swear, if I had had to live with that pain all my life I would have seriously considered something horrible. The pain is excruciating. It took some time to get that bad so get going on fixing whatever it is sooner rather than later. Good luck.
