"Thoughtfully traces Mara Wilson's] journey from child actress to Hollywood dropout...Who is she now? She's a writer." --NPR's "Guide To 2016's Great Reads"

"Growing up, I wanted to be Mara Wilson. Where Am I Now? is a delight." --Ilana Glazer, cocreator and star of Broad City

Named a best book of the month by GoodReads and Entertainment Weekly

A former child actor best known for her starring roles in Matilda and Mrs. Doubtfire, Mara Wilson has always felt a little young and out of place: as the only kid on a film set full of adults, the first daughter in a house full of boys, a Valley girl in New York and a neurotic in California, and a grown-up the world still remembers as a little girl. Tackling everything from what she learned about sex on the set of Melrose Place, to discovering in adolescence that she was no longer "cute" enough for Hollywood, these essays chart her journey from accidental fame to relative (but happy) obscurity. They also illuminate universal struggles, like navigating love and loss, and figuring out who you are and where you belong. Candid, insightful, moving, and hilarious, Where Am I Now? introduces Mara Wilson as a brilliant new chronicler of the experience that is growing up female.

Great Comforter for Warmer Weather
Color: Aqua, Size: Twin XL
I purchased the Bedsure Comforter Duvet insert and I love it. I think it's meant for a duvet insert but it works just as well as a blanket. It's light and not too warm so it's perfect for the warmer months. The material is soft and plush but not too thick. I have one is lavender and I just bought one for my son in light blue. Love all the pretty colors. I'd highly recommend.

Not Bulky, Not Too Warm
Color: White, Size: Twin
This is a great comforter. I have purchased others that were way too bulky. This one is perfect. It is lightweight and seems ideal for warmer temperatures. I am not too hot in the middle of the night. We are heading into Summer but I am sure this will be fine for Summer heat or for Air Conditioners.

Very soft pillow cases
Color: Black, Size: Standard (Pack of 4)
Very nice pillow cases. When I saw them in the packaging I thought they look rough. But I was surprised. They are soft. I recommend them. Great price.
