In How to Look Spectacular: A Starlet s Confessions, Kaling gives her tongue-in-cheek secrets for surefire on-camera beauty, ( Your natural hair color may be appropriate for your skin tone, but this isn' t the land of appropriate ?this is Hollywood, baby.?

( I had been replaced by a younger model. And now they had matching bangs. ) In Unlikely Leading Lady, she muses on America?s fixation with the weight of actresses, ( Most women we see onscreen are either so thin that they re walking clavicles or so huge that their only scenes involve them breaking furniture. ) And in Soup Snakes, Kaling spills some secrets on her relationship with her ex-boyfriend and close friend, B.J. Novak ( I will freely admit: my relationship with B.J. Novak is weird as hell. ) Mindy turns the anxieties, the glamour, and the celebrations of her second coming-of-age into a laugh-out-loud funny collection of essays that anyone who's ever been at a turning point in their life or career can relate to. And those who've never been at a turning point can skip to the parts where she talks about meeting Bradley Cooper.
