If You Have to Cry, Go Outside

If You Have to Cry, Go Outside

I've just completed Kelly Cutrone's first book If You Have to Cry, Go Outside (and other things you mother never told you).

If you know anything about Kelly, she's super mean, super scary and super honest (as seen on The Hills and The City)! Most people in the industry are terrified of her, but her book showed a different side of Ms. Cutrone. Like she's actually a very nice person?! And protective of her employees. And a boarder-line feminist... Well that's not exactly true, but it's pretty darn close. Her book is all about women (and gay men) and empowering yourself and being who you want to be instead of who the world or your parents want you to be.

I'm recommending this book to all my girlie friends out there. It's hilarious, and a good read, and just like Kelly- to the point! It's brass, but straightforward like Kelly herself, but it's actually a very very good book.

Her next book comes out Spring 2011... just sayin

Book #2: Charlie St. Cloud

Book #2: Charlie St. Cloud

Tonight I decided not to go out, but stay in and finish book 2 on my summer list. I was in a rush to read this book because the movie (staring the gorgeous Zac Efron) came out and Friday, and I plan on seeing it today...

Book Number 2 was: Charlie St. Cloud

Clearly I chose this book because Zac Efron is on the cover, and stars in the movie. But really, this book was amazing. It's one of those books you can't put down; I spent the last 2 hours reading over 3/4 of the book. I really can't give away anything because I can't even comprehend how I feel after reading this book. There have been so many emotions, just in the last 20 chapters, let alone the whole book: sadness, sorrow, joy, hope, grief, longing... gosh it was intense. Now that I'm done, I just feel optimistic, on life and everything else.

I'm definitely recommending this book! As for the movie, I'll let you know. But as for books to movie situations go, the books are significantly better than the movie (e.g. The Last Song, and Dear John-- espeicially Dear John!!!)


Watch the trailer (and bask in the beauty that is Zac Efron)

One more book on my summer reading list and 4 weeks to go, I can do it!

Eenie Meenie Minee Mo...

Eenie Meenie Minee Mo...

So this one's gonna be simple and to the point...

I finished reading The Last Song and it was so good! I actually bawled for the entire ending... it's a good read! I'm so stoked to see the movie next week when it comes out. See the trailer, it looks so cute!

Second, this week's song of the week: another Justin Bieber, Eenie Meenie. This song is so stinking cute. All I can say is I love it! Haha it's been my replay song of the week. But since this week has been pretty stellar, I'll pleasure you with another. Carrie Underwood's Ever Ever After. Another cute one that makes me feel like falling in love :).

That's all for now,

Catch up witcha lata..
