Interesting to listen to this now that Ephron is no longer with us. Nothing earth shattering, but a bit of insight on "When Harry Met Sally" one of my all time favorite movies.

Laugh-out-loud funny in spots. I probably should have waited 15 years to read it.

Nora is hilarious. Unfortunately the book is a little dated. Or my taste is subjective in that sense.

Funny with Nora Ephron's dry sense of humor. As a woman I related to some of thoughts about getting older. Thought-provoking book on aging with humor.
