...made dinner for ourselves that night. She made angel-hair pasta and salad with homemade croutons. I made stir-fried beef with rice. On impulse, I threw in some of her sun-dried tomatoes into the pan with the beef and red peppers. We laughed, and it was surprisingly good—worth an appearance on Top Chef...
...Lindsay Lohan. In the narration, Coogan discusses her own endless maneuvering to manage Kenton’s movie-star image, calling the actress, “my work-in-progress,” and adding, “My job title is not that of nanny or guardian angel, but I perform duties of both.” The reader follows as she juggles Kenton’s drug use, serial marriages, and generally surreal behavior and lifestyle...
Forsythe had a guardian angel in the Hollywood Hills: producer Aaron Spelling, who was pretty much responsible for the second half of the actor's career by casting him in Charlie's Angels (1976-81) and Dynasty (1981-89).

Currie has an alcoholic father (Brett Cullen), a foolish mother (Tatum O'Neal) and a sister, Marie (Riley Keough), who in real life is an identical twin. The rapport...
...genre is crime fiction, which encompasses everything from [British] cozies to that romantic Raymond Chandler, slumming angel-type detective to Dashiell Hammett, who actually had hardboiled characters. Easy Rawlins is not hardboiled. He's around a lot of hardboiled people, but he himself is a family guy. He's domestic. He has some kids that he's adopted. I guess he has a real kid somewhere. He has a house and works in the garden, that kind of stuff. That's not a hardboiled character. (See TIME's weekend critic picks...
