Beskrivning från Goodreads:
In Talking as Fast as I Can, Lauren Graham hits pause for a moment and looks back on her life, sharing laugh-out-loud stories about growing up, starting out as an actress, and, years later, sitting in her trailer on the Parenthood set and asking herself, “Did you, um, make it?” She opens up about the challenges of being single in Hollywood (“Strangers were worried about me; that’s how long I was single!”), the time she was asked to audition her butt for a role, and her experience being a judge on Project Runway (“It’s like I had a fashion-induced blackout”).

In “What It Was Like, Part One,” Graham sits down for an epic Gilmore Girls marathon and reflects on being cast as the fast-talking Lorelai Gilmore. The essay “What It Was Like, Part Two” reveals how it felt to pick up the role again nine years later, and what doing so has meant to her.

Some more things you will learn about Lauren: She once tried to go vegan just to bond with Ellen DeGeneres, she’s aware that meeting guys at awards shows has its pitfalls (“If you’re meeting someone for the first time after three hours of hair, makeup, and styling, you’ve already set the bar too high”), and she’s a card-carrying REI shopper (“My bungee cords now earn points!”).

Kommentarer:
Talking as Fast I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Gilrs and (Everything in Between) är Lauren Grahams biografi och eftersom jag älskar tv-serien Gilmore Girls där Lauren Graham spelar karaktären Lorelei Gilmore så var jag väldigt intresserad av att få läsa den här boken och den var jättebra!

Vissa delar var bättre än andra men det var väldigt intressant att få ta del av Lauren Grahams liv och hon verkar vara en så trevlig person! Jag tyckte bäst om delen där hon pratade om Gilmore Girls och gick igenom alla säsongerna och att man också fick ta del av hennes dagbok som skrev under inspelningen av A Year in Life.
Vissa delar var även väldigt underhållande och alla bilderna i boken gjorde att läsupplevelsen ännu bättre, även om jag gärna hade haft bilderna i färg istället för svartvitt.
Jag hade gärna velat att boken skulle ha varit lite länge för jag ville inte att den skulle ta slut, men den var som sagt väldigt bra och om man gillar Gilmore Girls är Talking as Fast as I Can en bok som jag mer än gärna rekommenderar!

Citat:
“But life doesn’t often spell things out for you or give you what you want exactly when you want it, otherwise it wouldn’t be called life, it would be called vending machine.”
