If you like David Sedaris, you will probably like this short collection of personal essays. Nora Ephron was a journalist, screenwriter (You've Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally), and director, among other things. This book is a mix of personal stories and opinions. Though she often had a front-row seat to major historical moments, she instead chooses to focus on how she got her first job in journalism, intimate family stories, and how she learned some important life lessons.

Her deep honesty is at times self-depreciating in a humorous way (like David Sedaris) and other times brutally honest in a somber way ('For half my life, divorced is how I defined myself' --quoting from memory here). Her tone is straightforward and wry.

I like when audiobook memoirs are read by the author, as this one is. Ephron has great timing.
