A Total Waste of Makeup by Kim Gruenenfelder
4.0
This book was chick lit at it's best! Full of cliches and fluff and everything I was looking for summer laugh out read :) It was a book about a 30 something, single girl who works as an assistant to a movie star. Plot? Not so much.. I didn't really care. It was just fun to read.
The book is full of funny cliches that are written to her great grandniece - things she wishes she would have known when she was 16 and wants to pass along. Niece.. because she has no current prospects.
Some of the things I have found funny - but are much better in context -
"Never ask a single person if they're "seeing anyone special," an unemployed person if they've found a job or a married couple when they're planning to have children. You're not making conversation. You're starting someone on the road to prozac."
"Emotionally, it' s better to be homicidal than suicidal. When you're upset with a guy, at least you know which way to point the gun."
"Don't go out with a man just because he looks good on paper. You're not kissing paper."
Looking forward to the next book :)
