Inspired to get this by finally watching [b:The Heidi Chronicles|86|The Heidi Chronicles Uncommon Women and Others & Isn't It Romantic (Vintage)|Wendy Wasserstein|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1156876951s/86.jpg|4450].

This is a collection of personal essays, mostly personal anecdotes, similar to Nora Ephron's 'I Feel Bad About My Neck.' Written mostly for a NYC women's magazine, they're even shorter than Ephron's, and very late 80s. Lots of single-woman life. Some feminism. Some making-it-as-a-writer. She had horrible luck with men, although I already knew that. Maintained a good attitude, at least.

It was a fun, breezy read and -- two weeks later -- I've forgotten almost everything.
