Wrap It Up!-Book Five

Books For Those Seeking Wit & Wisdom

My Christmas wish for you is this, as we navigate through another trying year en masse, let books be the gift you choose to give. To others, and to yourself.

May they provide an escape, a perspective on the unimaginable, a lesson in how to do better, to be better, a door into a world of wonder, a glimpse at an everyday hero’s inspirational tale, a reminder that laughter is indeed the best medicine, that words and stories are sustenance for the soul, and in our darkest moments, a soft place to land.

Find a cozy spot, crack open a book and have a wonderful, joyous, and peaceful holiday season.

NUMBER ONE IS WALKING – STEVE MARTIN (NOV 15TH)

Martin shares an illustrated memoir covering his legendary acting career, something that despite his previous books he has never written about before. He shares charming tales of antics on set, moments of inspiration and exploits with the likes of Robin Williams and Diane Keaton. And in true Martin style, he makes it all sound like just a day in the life of a regular guy. Martin has always been and will remain, irresistibly charming.

With balls out directness and dark hilarity, Gilpin dissects everything from perceptions of modern womanhood to the cringe of the Hollywood lifestyle. A chaotic and unflinching memoir unlike anything you’ve ever read.
