Sinossi
Dalla irriverente creatrice, produttrice e protagonista della serie tv "Girls" la raccolta di verità sulle giovani donne di oggi. Con spirito graffiante, in questo libro Lena Dunham ci racconta delle sue esperienze fin troppo simili alle nostre: innamorarsi, sentirsi sole, essere in sovrappeso di quattro chili mangiando solo cibi sani, dover dare prova di sé in una stanza piena di uomini che hanno il doppio dei tuoi anni, tenersi vicine le amiche, perdere pessimi fidanzati, trovare il vero amore, ma soprattutto avere il coraggio di essere se stesse. Nella speranza che ammettere i suoi errori - accettare un lavoro sottopagato e umiliante, invaghirsi dei bad boys, trovarsi a letto con tipi da cui vorresti scappare alla velocità della luce - impedirà a noi di farli. Tra lotte con la moda e con l'ipocondria, tra pianti sul lavoro e prime volte deludenti, scopriremo che Lena non è un personaggio da copertina (anche se "Vogue" gliene ha dedicata una), ma è "una di noi". E grazie alla sua onestà, candida e brutale, è diventata la voce simbolo della nuova generazione. "Non sono quel tipo di ragazza" è una serie di dispacci dalle trincee della guerra del diventare adulti...

Not That Kind of Girl...more like Not My Kind of Book Honestly, the only thought that (continuously) ran through my head throughout this novel OH THANK GAWD I did not buy this one (#LibraryLove) The cringe factor on this book was almost too much to bear. I normally listen to audiobooks out lou
If you read the comments on negative reviews here on Goodreads, these are some recurring themes you'll run into: "You didn't read this whole entire book, so you're not allowed to rate or review it.""Some reviewers are obviously just looking for an excuse to trash books.""If you don't like a book, why Leggi tutto
So the good news is, Lena Dunham is wrong. She's not the voice of a generation, as her thinly disguised version of herself on her TV show once stated. Nope, she's just the voice of over-indulged narcissists who have been so praised for every shit they've ever taken in life that they no longer smell
"There is nothing gutsier to me than a person announcing that their story is one that deserves to be told," Really, cause I think that there's nothing more narcissistic when you are under 30 and are best known for being naked, a lot. Seriously, unless you are Anne Frank you have no business writing
This is a hella biased review because I'll be the first to admit that I think Lena Dunham is the actual genuine second coming of Christ so just discount everything I say because it's wrong. I really, really liked this. Dunham's humour and my humour are practically the same so this entire book was ju Leggi tutto
I mean, I'll preface this review with the fact that I think Lena Dunham is pretty awesome, and (just like Mindy Kaling) I followed her on Twitter for a spell, kind of dying inside for her to notice me and follow me back and make my life. And then maybe we could go to the spa together one day if we b Leggi tutto
This might be the first memoir that I have read where the subject's parents were born after me… yikes, life stops for no one! Have you seen Girls (HBO), it's a great show, but has some pretty believable but out-there characters and incidences, and I did wonder where someone in their twenties got all Leggi tutto
