Someday, Someday, Maybe

Like everyone other reviewer, I will start out by saying, "I love Lauren Graham." There, now that's out of the way. I was not expecting much from this novel, not because I don't think actresses can be multi talented, but more because it's not the type of novel I usually fall for. Single, working girl in the city, chick lit, etc. Just not something that ever, ever draws me. But I found Franny to be cute and likable, and I think because it was set in the mid-nineties, that gave it ...a more fun flair (if it were "contemporary," they'd be texting all over the book instead of journaling her day planner, and slam, I'd have been done). I thought the book was cute, predictable, fairly funny, and a good way to spend a couple of afternoons.

I picked up this audiobook from the library because I found it on a list of funny audiobooks and just like many people I loved Gilmore Girls and Lauren Graham. I liked Franny and I enjoyed learning about the entertainment business and found myself wondering how much was based on Graham's experiences looking for an agent, etc. The only thing is, that I didn't find it that funny. There were definitely parts of it that were funny, but there were large parts of it that weren't funny at all and they weren't meant to be; but I still felt kind of mislead. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't been expecting it to be a comedic tour de force. Lauren Graham did a fabulous job narrating her book and I was really happy that she narrated her own book, I would be thrilled to hear her narrate something else.MoreLess
