Carrie Brownstein is known by many from the Emmy Peabody Award-winning satirical comedy TV Series Portlandia on IFC. She is a founding member of the iconic Riot Grrl band, Sleater Kinney. Brownstein just penned her first memoir " Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl a Memoir " released on October 27th has received some very rave reviews.
I binge-read the book in one weekend, certainly a page-turner. Brownstein's narrative is so personal, I will say Brownstein's honesty is refreshing very relatable. The way she explains the highs and lows that come with pursuing a creative endeavor is honest, insightful, and beautiful. She shares her insecurities with no sugar coating. This is a must-read for the content is well written the flow is easy to follow. I found myself in tears being able to relate to the feeling you don't belong. Brownstein's linguistic training is apparent in her words are so fluid. Actually inspired me to take my vocabulary up a notch. Honestly, I was a bit preppy back in the day, the kids in a band thought that I was lame. Wearing penny loafers and loves baby soft kinda puts you in a certain genre of a nerd. The music history in this book is so stellar, you get a truly intimate look at So PTB readers we give this book 5 stars must-read. Sleater Kinney has a new album out and is currently on tour.
