Feeling like the odd girl out has always defined Jackie DellaTorre’s life. Her specialty: Having zero grace. Whether she is embarrassing herself by drunkenly (and mistakenly) eating an entire jar of pickles that didn’t belong to her or turning a movie star’s flight home from Vegas into the trip from hell; she’s just like us.... except Jackie is better at laughing at her quirks. When she's not writing, she’s a hairdresser and enjoys spending time with her friends and family. She’s “Aunt Jackie” to every kid she meets. And the rest of the time, well, she’s just busy thinking about eating
Honest, heartwarming, and hilarious. I read this book in one sitting and laughed out loud multiple times. Also, if you’ve ever wondered what your hairdresser is thinking, here’s your book. This was a quick read and a perfect pick me up after a terrible week. If you enjoyed “Meaty” the. “Chapstick” is for you.
