Customer Reviews

Great book

I have had this book forever, and whenever I read parts of it, they are still relevant and inspiring. The whole book is creative and contains lots of good advice. Positive and open, the author is the type of person I would want as my rolemodel.

Wonderful

I bought the book based on the title. Im a sucker for glamour! The book was intended for a friends daughter. I read it, I love it and have to buy her another copy. I really wish I would have had this book when I was 15 or 16. maybe I would have made choices a bit different. I am so impressed with Jennifur and wish her so much in the future!

Great Gift for Any Teen (or her mother)

Another reviewer said this wonderful book isn't for older readers which could lead some who need it to think they'd gain nothing from it. I bought five copies to give to teens at Xmas; and, although I'm older than dirt, even I picked a few good pesky hints. Most 12 to 21 year olds need advice on how to take control of their own lives while having fun in the process. And it never hurts anyone -- regardless of age -- to be reminded that she is responsible for the quality of her life. Great message -- fun read.

Are You Up to Taking the Pesky Challenge?

Having been a fan of Jennifur's ultra-swanky zine Pesky Meddling Girls for 3+ years, I was beyond excited to find out she had a book coming out.Jennifur's zine (and book) changed my whole outlook on things. Instead of being a sad sack and upset about all my "flaws", her book taught me to embrace all of those qualities, because without them I would not be me. I now look at the world through fuzzy pink glasses. Life Is A Movie Starring You:The Pesky Meddling Girls Guide to Living Your Dreams is awesome, informative and fantastically illustrated. It covers a wide range of topics from etiquette,lingo,room decorating tips, make-up tricks and fashion advice to why nerd boys rock,movies to watch,songs to listen to,books to read and tons o' tips on how to feel fantabulous about yourself as you are.

Witty, Hilarious and Revealing!

Ms. Brandt has crafted a superb tome that will delight readers of all ages, but especially teen-agers with a sharp eye for trends and style. Completely enchanting!
