This Is Just My Face
By Gabourey Sidibe
256 pages;
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
A bubbly memoir by the Precious and Empire star that brims with winning anecdotes: an extreme hair-dye mishap, an excruciating blind date with a cabbie. But it's Sidibe's heartfelt exploration of insecurity and depression that makes us love her.
