What do you do when your friend writes a book?
You brag. Hard.
Lauryn and I have been friends since the old days (aka the nineties), & back then our favorite past-time was to pass back this cheesy Abercrombie & Fitch shirtless guy journal. It was our way of writing each other notes, & between classes we would pass it back & forth.
It was then that I should have known she was going to write a book someday. She mastered her voice through her words, she was effing hilarious, & her grammar was always spot on.
As I was writing “WANT TO GET 2GETHER 4 LUNCH AFTR SKOOL?”, she was all “Erica, I know that you can spell correctly. What is with these atrocious abbreviations. Get it together or you will never get into a good college!”. Nothing’s changed either, she’s still the grammar police & I love it- she keeps me on my toes.
So, when she told me she was approached to write a book based off her amazing health & wellness blog, The Skinny Confidential, I was ecstatic for her & totally not surprised.
Not only is she a health/fitness/beauty guru with all the best tips you would never think of, but she is also incredibly motivating. She makes living a healthy lifestyle easy.
People don’t have all the time in the world to make healthy 5 course dinners, to get their hair done perfectly, or to work-out for hours a day, & she get’s that. She modifies & makes it simple simple simple.
Her book is all of that & much more. Trust. I got it yesterday by courier & I sat down, turned off the TV (weird!!), & read it from cover to cover in 30 minutes. I laughed, bookmarked like crazy, & made a grocery list.
Should you buy it?
Well, let me ask you this- do you want to live a healthier & more well-rounded lifestyle? Do you want to know some the best beauty/ hair secrets to ever exist? Do you want to know how to most effectively tone & lean out your bod in the shortest amount of time? Do you want to satisfy your sweet tooth in a healthy way?
Then the answer is easy, abso-effing-lutely. Find it HERE.
Happy Reading & you can thank me later ;).

I got my copy today and devoured it. It was such a great book, and as I posted on her FB page, it really sounds like she wrote it. I love it! It’s hard to write a book that sounds like you. It was very conversational and flowed easily.
So glad you liked it- amazing!!!
SO cute! :) Love the design and the layout!
