Queen of the Oddballs : And Other True Stories from a Life Unaccording to Plan
reviewed Cute, quirky fast read on + 3 more book reviews


This book is cute and quirky. It's a series of short stories recounted by the author is a time-line fashion through the decades. Be prepared for A LOT of pop culture references. If you weren't into television shows of the 60s, 70s and 80s, there's going to be a lot of jokes that fly right over your head. All in all, it's a interesting story of a woman who, despite not fitting into "the mold" (looks, brains, social standing, etc), goes onto have a full and successful life. I'd recommend it to teenage girls that want some inspiration as well as more mature folks that want to chuckle at the past.
