Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns)
Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals a timid chubster afraid of her own bike a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright and finally a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?”
Perhaps you want to know what Mindy thinks makes a great best friend (someone who will fill your prescription in the middle of the night) or what makes a great guy (one who is aware of all elderly people in any room at any time and acts accordingly) or what is the perfect amount of fame (so famous you can never get convicted of murder in a court of law) or how to maintain a trim figure (you will not find that information in these pages). If so you’ve come to the right book mostly!
In Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? Mindy invites readers on a tour of her life and her unscientific observations on romance friendship and Hollywood with several conveniently placed stopping points for you to run errands and make phone calls. Mindy Kaling really is just a Girl Next Door—not so much literally anywhere in the continental United States but definitely if you live in India or Sri Lanka.

Then Again
Mom loved adages quotes slogans. There were always little reminders pasted on the kitchen wall. For example the word THINK. I found THINK thumbtacked on a bulletin board in her darkroom. I saw it Scotch-taped on a pencil box she’d collaged. I even found a pamphlet titled THINK on her bedside table. Mom liked to THINK.
So begins Diane Keaton’s unforgettable memoir about her mother and herself. In it you will meet the woman known to tens of millions as Annie Hall but you will also meet and fall in love with her mother the loving complicated always-thinking Dorothy Hall. To write about herself Diane realized she had to write about her mother too and how their bond came to define both their lives. In a remarkable act of creation Diane not only reveals herself to us she also lets us meet in intimate detail her mother. Over the course of her life Dorothy kept eighty-five journals—literally thousands of pages—in which she wrote about her marriage her children and most probingly herself. Dorothy also recorded memorable stories about Diane’s grandparents. Diane has sorted through these pages to paint an unflinching portrait of her mother—a woman restless with intellectual and creative energy struggling to find an outlet for her talents—as well as her entire family recounting a story that spans four generations and nearly a hundred years.
More than the autobiography of a legendary actress Then Again is a book about a very American family with very American dreams. Diane will remind you of yourself and her bonds with her family will remind you of your own relationships with those you love the most.
