3.2 out of 4 stars. If the “Devil Wears Prada” and “Reconstructing Amelia” had a love child it would be Knoll’s “Luckiest Girl Alive”. A very entertaining story line that…
“Missoula” – Jon Krakauer
3 out of 4 stars. 80 rapes between 2010 – 2012 just on the Missoula Montana’s college campus. What a tough subject to discuss, research, write about, and not to…
