Robyn Okrant thought to herself “what would happen if I digested all of Oprah’s musings.” The result was this book “Living Oprah”. We at HP Daily Blog cannot wait for a Julie & Julia send-up of this book – but until pre-production hits, all we have is this evening to rejoice in.
The author undoubtedly luxuriates in being a do-gooder, making a difference, being kind but suffers the fate of having to listen to Dr. Phil. Even then, it may make for an interesting evening – especially if you’re interested in the mini-me version of Oprah.
February 8th – 7pm – HP Library Auditorium.
