As a young woman, Laurie unconsciously mirrors her dad, trying on several outsized personalities. Later, she lucks into the perfect job--interviewing celebrities for a top women's magazine. Growing up with her extraordinary father has given Laurie a knack for relating to the stars. But while researching an article on her dad's life, she makes an astonishing discovery: he's not the man he says he is--not even close. Now, Laurie begins to puzzle together three decades of lies and the splintered person that resulted from them--herself.
Please note that this is not a comic book but a graphic novel. It is a memoir and contains possible adult themes. I have not reviewed this book yet but I will let you know as soon as I do. If you're interested in reading it, let me know.

Hummmmm...sounds interesting. I just got done reading "Crazy for the Storm a memoir of survival" by Norman Ollestad. It got me crying a few times...it does have some naughty words in it though.

What is a graphic novel?
Is it like a comic book but for adults? SO confused in Laurieville.
