My Formerly Hot Life's funny beginning lured me in on the first page, but by page 4, my mind was swirling. By page 15, I had a headache and kept losing my place. I found the writer's style is impossibly circuitous, overly detailed.Maybe it's her "Type-Every-Single-Random-Thought-That-Comes-In-My-Head" style. (It's too much!) Or maybe it's that this book would have been better off left as a blog or a magazine article. Was she just trying to pad her stories with details to fill an entire book?She has good points to make, but good luck follwing her long winded & meandering paragraphs to get to a gem. I find it especially interesting that Mrs. Dolgoff is an editor, one who would seemingly know better. Ironic.Sadly, I can't recommend this book because I didn't even want to finish it.
