I wish I could rate this higher, but I was a little disappointed. The voice came through in the weird ramblings and jokes, but the overall stories were boring. Maybe it's better when she reads it? Strange foreshadowing that Retta beat out Ellie for the role of Donna on Parks & Rec and Retta's book was much funnier than Ellie's. Sorry, Ellie. Write more about your acting or parenting. Those were the best parts of the book.
