What Celebrity Written Books Have You Enjoyed.

The only one I have read is the Jenny McCarthy belly laughs book, which I liked

Then she had to go all anti-vaxxer "I cured autism" bonkers, and I just can never get into anything she does ever again

so, so, so over-rated...

Lena Dunham is a sh*t, she basically wrote a fake memoir of being raped at Oberlin. "Barry" didn't rape her and sued:

Go to a tiny college and make up stories about the 1 guy you date--yes, Lena, no one likes being accused of rape.

For kids books, BJ Novak wrote "The Book Without Pictures," which is excellent.


That book was the worst. Clearly written by someone who does not have kids.

Tina Fey's is great.
Leah Remini's Troublemaker book was good, if at its heart a depressing tale of a cult

Really, really old ones that are hard to get (but maybe not so much in the internet years) are great, too. Doris Day and Joan Crawford's autobiographies are amazing.

Are you kidding??? DH and I loved reading it to DS, who loved it just as much. When I was checking it out of the library, multiple kids came up to me and told me how much they loved it.

Oh, on the kids' books written by celebrities list: the Marcel the Shell with Shoes On books by Jenny Slate are fantastic. They come from her three YouTube videos about the character. Make me crack up every time.

Craig Ferguson wrote both a memoir and a novel. Both are very good.

Greg Proops has a fun book out that's about everything.

I also thought Roseanne Barr and Kathy Griffin both wrote interesting, smart memoirs.

Love Mindy Kaling's books. I thought Tina Fey's was very funny.

I thought Amy Poehler's was a huge disappointment.
