What's Going On Here?

There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Irreverent and GREAT Fun!

The Willoughbys is fantastic, filled with vile characters and perfect for anyone who has read all of Roald Dahl and is looking for something just as good. I don't know where I was when this baby was published, but it is so funny I laughed out-loud. The Willoughby kids are totally obnoxious children with completely awful parents. The kids try to get their parents killed so that they can become orphans and the parents try to pull a Hansel and Gretel deal and leave their kids at home while they go on vacation- then they put their house up for sale! Sound good? Then get this book, now!
