Nikki - Notes of Life
I was looking forward to reading Matthew Perry’s memoir, but having heard what he says about Keanu Reeves not once but twice in the book, I’m now not so sure.

My thoughts exactly Nikki. Thanks for reading.

That Matthew Perry book looks interesting. I didn’t even know he had written one. Happy Monday, Jodie.

Are you planning on reading the Matthew Perry book, Jodie? It looks interesting, but I’m not sure it’s for me or not.

I’ve placed on hold on the audiobook with my library Wendy. I thought I might give it a try and see how it is.
