Welcome to Litsy!

This fun, light memoir of an entertainment journalist about her interactions with celebrities is a great palette cleanser. She is unafraid to expose her own foibles and embarrassing moments along the way. It‘s a fun look at a lifestyle completely different from my own.

This book was very funny and awkward. You have to respect someone who can share such embarrassing celebrity encounters ha ha. #readathon

#TBRtemptation post! Sounds like a fun and funny memoir to me! KC is Executive Editor of "People Magazine", and she charts her career from red-carpet reporter to the top. Michael Douglas, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, and many, many other celebrities make appearances and share encounters & personality with the author. If you're looking for a lighter read, this may be your cup of tea. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook ?

I always enjoy books that give the "inside scoop" about celebrities, and this was a fun jaunt with Kate Coyne through her years as an editor for 2 major magazines and the celebrities she encountered as a result. #LitsyAtoZ #LetterI

This was a good palate cleanser. Like reading People after finishing an issue of the New Yorker. Kate Coyne is actually an editor at People so that comparison is apt. Anyway, this is sort of a gossipy telling of some of her celebrity encounters. You won't find anything negative about celebrities in it, but it's still fun to get an inside look at the world of entertainment.

I just heard the terrible news that George Michael died. I remember Coyne's chapter about her encounter with him as a kid. It hurts my heart that another voice from my childhood has been silenced this year.

I really really liked this one. Very funny, and a few surprising moments. It is fun reading about her being such a fangirl when she works with celebrities all the time.

I need some light, gossipy reading before I hunker down in the kitchen tomorrow #readcation

Chatty and gossipy makes for ideal bus reading.

Picked this book up at Target for a fun, summer read and it delivered. The chapter on George Michael was one of the funniest things I've read in a long time!

I listened to this on audio while I walked the dog for a few weeks and finished it up while I picked up sticks after my husband cut down a tree. Loved Coyne's stories of different times she rubbed elbows with celebrities like Tom Cruise, Winona Judd, and Anderson Cooper. Coyne is able to poke fun at herself and give an inside glimpse into the lives of the stars. Anyone who reads People magazine will enjoy this one.

A behind the scenes look at Hollywood by a celebrity journalist .A gossipy fun read.

Perfect beach read. Loved Coyne's journey from teen fan girl to professional fan woman. Fun to read bits out loud to family & friends.
