If you’ve been reading here for long then you know that Jean Godfrey-June is one of my favorites. I’ve followed her writing for years and read her memoir ages ago when it came out. I was reminded of it more recently (while reading Cat Marnell’s memoir) and re-inspired to pick it back up. I’m glad I did. Even ten years later, it’s such a fun read – and an amazing look into the glamorous beauty industry + world of magazines. Jean is such a wonderful story teller, and does so in such a humble (self-deprecating) and relatable way.
