Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing

March 15, 2023 / vienna / 0 Comments

Author Matthew Perry

When I was younger I read a lot of biographies and memoirs, not so much now. I love Matthew Perry, I loved Friends for years and years.

I bought it at Target in hardcover, 30% off. I would have paid full price and I don’t buy many hardcover books these days. I just don’t have room for them, but again I love Chandler Bing therefore I love Matthew Perry, therefore I am reading his memoir.

I expected this to be an easy read, but it isn’t, for me at least. It’s painful to read, so it may take me a minute to finish it.

Author, Samin Nosrat

I am appalled that this book as been in print for 5 years and I am just reading it now. I cook. A lot, and I’m a good cook. And yet this book has already rocked my world! At least in the kitchen. Who knew? I heard about this book listening to Tim Ferris interview the author Samin Nosrat for his book Tribe of Mentors. I’ll have more to say about this book.
