The Greatest Love Story Ever Told by Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman

I was only a few chapters into this book when I started brainstorming ways to gift it to my fiance without coming off as patronizing. Giving a relationship book to your partner is … tricky (especially when your partner isn’t a big reader). It’s a wonderful, delightful book with some truly fantastic insights into relationships and specifically long-lasting, healthy relationships. And our relationship IS flipping amazing. I just loved this book. Anyway, I’ll figure it out. If you couldn’t tell by the cover, this is […]

Delightful if unsurprising

This stirring coming of age tale of a young Austrian countess and the baron who steals her heart … just kidding, you totally know what you’re getting into with a Nick Offerman book, and this doesn’t disappoint. Basically he’s a less gruff, more artistic version of Rom Swanson, and it’s utterly refreshing how little Offerman cares for the stereotypical trappings of manhood his fans seem to think he epitomizes. Like he himself points out, he’s an actor, an artist by trade; it’s not like the […]

Hi. I’m Badkittyuno, and I’ve fallen behind again…

Hi. Sorry. I really thought I was like 10 reviews behind and it turned out to actually be 19. So then I started up this list of reviews…and didn’t post it…and now I’m 26 behind. I would blame my kids/divorce/life, but really — I’d much rather read than write! Also, I’ve been working from home a lot and doing laundry instead of writing reviews (which is what I do when I get bored at the office), so that’s not helping. Anyway, here’s 26 brief reviews […]

Nick Offerman is a magnificent human man.

Anyone who knows me knows what an enormous fan I am of Parks and Recreation. While I am always and forever Team Leslie Knope, I still adore the other characters and want their real-life counterparts to succeed. Some of my favorite sub-plots involve the twisted relationship of Ron and Tammy (I have a nostalgic fondness for Will and Grace, so Megan Mullally makes me delighted instantly), so imagine my feverish joy when I found out that Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally were actually married…TO EACH […]

Will the Real Ron Swanson Please Stand Up?

One of the best things I liked about “Parks & Rec” was Nick Offerman’s Ron Swanson. I liked the subtle humor as well as Ron’s philosophy that we should all be off the grid and fend for ourselves. It was almost like seeing a modern day interpretation of Henry David Thoreau. With better facial hair. When Mr. Offerman came out with this first memoir, Paddle Your Own Canoe I was interested to know more about the man behind Ron Swanson. Sadly, this felt like two […]

Clear alcohol is for rich women on diets

One of my favorite shows of the last several years is Parks & Recreation. I was heartbroken when it ended last year but happy the story was able to be finished and we were able to say goodbye to characters I loved. One of the more unique things about the series was that most of the main cast saw a huge increase in their exposure and popularity. In addition to the most striking example, Chris Pratt, you also have Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, and Nick […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.
Dixie on Track Her Down by Melinda LeighI am just starting Track Her Down and I have read them all in order till now and thought I...
Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
