I will get around to reading "the Help" maybe next week, but this weekend anyone know of a good download for the kindle that is witty, pretty fast paced, well written, etc.
No kidnap or war scenarios please, such a bummer. |
| Was gonna suggest The Misadventures of Justin Hearnfeld by Dan Elish, but realized it's not on Kindle...sorry. Would still highly recommend the book...it's a great read. You can check out the author's website for an excerpt. |
| Bossypants by Tina Fey |
I second this recommendation. |
| I downloaded Bossy Pant onto my kindle via audible.com it is ready by Tina Fey and I recommend listening instead of reading this one! |
| I also clicked on this to recommend bossy pants! |
Agree, it was a very funny listen and I'm not sure it would have been the same without hearing her deliver it in her Tina Fey way. I also really liked listening to Rob Lowe's "Stories I Only Tell My Friends" and I am NOT someone who is in to celebrities. Neither of these are helpful for OP though because I think they're better to listen to than read. I'm going to go check my Kindle and see if anything I've forgotten I read fits what OP is requesting. |
| the adults by alison espach |
| Anything by David Sedaris-you will literally laugh out loud. |
| Sedaris! |
| Haha...I also came to recommend Bossypants! Love everything Sedaris too, except Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk. Could not get through it and I've read every other book of his and loved it. |
| Isn't a "page turner" on the Kindle an oxymoron?? |
| I loved The Adults, too! Also, books by Jonathan Tropper. I just finished The Beautiful Girl, and enjoyed it very much. |
| I've enjoyed reading the Janet Evanovich series (one for the money, two for the dough, etc). very light reading. I've heard The Tourist is good, but haven't downloaded it yet. |
| Anything by Claire Cook. Her books are lighthearted, funny, and quick reads. I read Life's a Beach this summer and enjoyed it. |
