A review by sassylk
The Most of Nora Ephron by Nora Ephron

emotional funny informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

i’m going to keep this book on my bookshelf for the rest of my life, and dip in and out to keep her advice with me forever. i love the way nora ephron lives her life, and some of her rules are going to stay with me forever (round table for dinner parties, never buy a red coat), as will some of her wisdom (particularly the speech to wellsley graduates, which made me cry and feels particularly relevant to my life stage right now). what a remarkable woman and writer. some sections of this were a little slow (the journalism section at the beginning is quite repetitive), but i’m glad i read it slowly, because, like nora, i have trouble with my memory, and her advice is stuff i want to remember for the rest of my life!
