Introverting with this collection to start the morning. I think Mindy would be proud.

I used to be obsessed with Mindy, and now have a soft spot for anything she writes. My favorite of this group is Help Is On The Way, which was like a love letter to her daughter‘s nanny 💖

Election Week was SO HARD!!!
Reading was nearly impossible, I was glued to my various devices every waking second. I have almost no data left for the rest of the month on my cell 🤪
In the evenings I had to decide at some point to let it go and possibly miss crucial calls ~ and just get some sleep!
These essays by the Marvelous Mindy were just perfect to get my mind to turn off, so fun to read, very short each.
They got me through that week 😅

Cinfhen I hear ya!!! It‘s been a stressful few weeks ....hopefully life will now settle down a bit 4y
CoffeeAndABook @Cinfhen I know. Especially since you‘re in the States right now, aren‘t you? I think we‘ll have to actively seek a space of peace, R&R and *books* though🎋📖🍹 it seems „all this“ won‘t be over for a while. If ever 🤪🤪 And now to the important stuff: Congrats on your daughter‘s engagement 🥂🍾🎉 ♾💝 4y
Cinfhen Thank you so much xxxxx it was a nice distraction during all the commotion 4y

We've been watching the Mindy Project so when I saw this series of six essays by Mindy Kaling it was an obvious download. The Kindle version is free to Amazon Prime members and after you download them you can access the audio free. I listened to this in audio read by the author - it's about exploring her religious heritage once she became a mother. This one was short - 21 minutes - and I'm looking forward to the other five.

Discovered these Amazon Original shorts for free on Amazon Prime. Fab discovery!

Short, sweet, funny, and relatable! It's always refreshing to see someone who you would otherwise think was completely outside of your spectrum (ie rich and famous where the world is their oyster) and realize that while, sure, they live a very different and privileged life they are still human- still no different than the rest of us in so many ways.

I love Mindy and I love #amazonoriginalstories which are free on Kindle and Audible with Amazon Prime 🙌

This series is fun, heartfelt, and relatable - just like the writer herself!

I love Mindy Kaling‘s humor and strong sense of self. This new collection of essays just came out so I thought I‘d check it out.

This was a really quick read and touches upon different aspects of how motherhood has impacted her life and her view of the world.

Using this to fill my #22 free space on my October #bookspinbingo

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y
