by Kristen Johnston [Compact Disc Johnston]
This is an autobiography of 3rd Rock From The Sun star Kristen Johnston and is read by the author. In it she talks about being bullied as a child, getting her first acting job, her drug addictions, hospital stays, her stint in rehab and the challenge that is staying sober. She even writes her own faux-obituary after her guts blow up because of drug usage and she's all alone in her London flat. I know that you probably get tired of reading about celebrities and their drug problems, but her writing style and comedic anecdotes make listening to the 4 discs worth while. [If you enjoy this, you may also wish to try 3rd Rock From The Sun seasons 1 and 2, which are available through the library, or Carrie Fisher's autobiographies Wishful Drinking or Shockaholic.] -- recommended by Carrie K. - Bennett Martin Public Library
[Also available in print format.]
