On Being Blonde: Wit and Wisdom from the World's Most Infamous Blondes
by Paula Munier
I love this book! And trust me, it’s not what you think it is. This fantastic pocketbook features 35 blonde celebrities, from Mae West to Marilyn Monroe to Hillary Clinton, devoting pages to each, including basic facts, crowning achievements, a mini-biography, and three or four pages of fantastic quotes.
Mae West: “I feel like a million tonight. But one at a time.”
Clare Booth Luce: “They say women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.”
Dolly Parton: “I was the first woman to burn my bra—it took the fire department four days to put it out.”
If you laughed, you’ll like the rest of this charming little salute to blondes. If not, well, you can look elsewhere. But blondes everywhere, even those of us who bleach our locks, will appreciate this index of famous blonde icons.
