Biografier

If you think Joan Rivers said funny, outrageous, and ridiculous things ONSTAGE, wait ’til you read the funny, outrageous, and ridiculous things she said OFFSTAGE … things that will make you laugh out loud … and keep Melissa in therapy for the foreseeable future.

The only thing my mother loved more than making people laugh was lying … or as she’d say, “embellishing.” Her motto was: “Why let the truth ruin a good story?”

This book contains some of those stories.
