Queen of the Oddballs

200609230805 My wife Carla recently read Hilary Carlip's Queen of the Oddballs: And Other True Stories from a Life Unaccording to Plan. We met Hilary about ten years ago in Los Angeles and run in to her from time to time. She's a very pleasant, funny person, but we had no idea that her life was and is so interesting!

Carla says: "Queen of the Oddballs is a fun, fast read and that Hillary's life is like a baby boomer version of Lucy Ricardo's. Hillary is always involved in some kind of scheme to get on stage, or under the spotlight. Her schemes can be pretty outrageous (like stalking Carole King all summer with a detective-like methodology until she finally ended up in her home - and became friends with her.) $11.16 on Amazon
