In her first memoir, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns), Mindy Kaling recounts her upbringing, college years, moving to New York, and breaking in to Hollywood as a writer and actress on The Office. She tells her experience with Hollywood’s ups and downs, both personally and professionally, and how she deals with not being the “ideal” picture of beauty.
Kaling’s writing style is reminiscent of her television personality, and that’s not a bad thing. She has an interesting story and I’m glad that I read it. She also has a follow-up, which I will try to pick up one of these days.
