This is Just My Face: Try Not to Stare/ Gabourey Sidibe/ 246 pgs

I don't often (think never) read biographies, but this one intrigued me. Gabourey (I learned this rhymes with cabaret) is an actress, a still young one, but she has thoughts. Funny thoughts. Insightful thoughts. She talks about her childhood (stable but she's a worrier), her parents' possibly illegal marriage (immigration fraud) and eventual divorce, her relationship with both of her parents, and her first job (fascinating). This is a quick, sometimes humorous, always real, read.
