Seriously.. Im Kidding>>>> Ellen Degeneres

    

I don't know how many of you guys who read but I  want to spend more time reading and less time on social media. I have a bit of an obsession.  Seriously... I'm NOT kidding.
So on my trip I brought 2 books with me. This is the one I actually got to finish.

I like Ellen! Before reading this book I didn't know much about her besides

1. She has a talk show

2. She gives a lot of stuff away.

3. She loves music and dancing

4. She married Portia De Rosa ( yumm)

5. She use to have a show in the 90s but it ended.

So going into this read I didn't know much. I just picked it up one day in Target when I was convincing myself I am going to start back reading more often. I didn't want a serious book so I said hey Ellen wont be too serious. I'm going to get it.

 

WELL let me tell you ! this book only has 237 pages but it felt like I had been reading it for a life time. I enjoyed the fact that it had short chapters because the books I normally read have 20+ pages in one chapter. I like that she spoke of Portia often. If I had a wife that looked like that I would speak of her often also! Things I learned about Ellen while reading her book.

1. Ellen is from Metairie LA. ( hello that's like 4 hours away from me)

2. She is a comedian

3. She does yoga everyday

4. She was on American Idol one season

5. She tapes her shows a day in advance.

6. She does not want kids

7. She wrote 3 other books .

 

I really wanted to do 8 but I couldn't even think of 1 more. This book was 75% dry. I have watched a couple of Ellen's shows and they have been better than this book. I don't recommend it unless you are a HARDCORE  Ellen fan which you probably would be if you buy her book.
