Trailer Trashed: My Dubious Efforts Toward Upward Mobility by Hollis Gillespie
3.0
I enjoyed reading her newest book. She is bridging that transition between wild, outrageous lifestyle that her two previous books were built on and a slightly more sedate version of that life now that she has a daughter. And yet, there is still so much in the book that is trademark H.G.
She is still the master of the great first line: she is the queen of hooks. Who would not want to read a story that begins: "I was definitely wearing the wrong clothes for a kidnapping, which is funny, because as a matter of course I'm usually outfitted pretty well for felonious behavior." (this is to cite but one of the tamer openings)
