I am a huuuuuuuge fan of religious memoirs, and most are too tragic to be trashy, BUT.

The Girl's Guide to Homelessness. Full of angst and probable exaggeration and just entertaining.

Gaston's greatest fault was his infatuation with Belle. They were a terrible match, which he probably knew at some level, but...infatuation.

Seriously, he discovered that the woman he was "in love" with AND her fruitcake father had been imprisoned by the Beast, and he'd heard about that guy/beast. And she was making excuses for him, despite his horrible temper and cruel actions. Beast's "true nature", as Belle described, was behind a huge, violent, angry shell.

Why the hell WOULDN'T Gaston assemble a group to protect the village when a glimpse of said Beast indicates that he's still raging in his castle?

Miranda Priestly is intensely, fiercely awesome. And tolerated whiny Andy much more than she should have.

Like, it's a job, Andy. Wailing about how your boss is pissed that you failed to do your job isn't cute. Whining about how a very casual business-casual look gets you side-eye from your *colleagues* in the *fashion industry* doesn't make you relatable. Disappearing in the middle of the work day when your immediate coworker is busier than you are to cry yourself into a makeover? REALLY shitty, Andy.

And she is very, very lucky that she wasn't canned and didn't have her professional reputation ruined for wandering past the foyer of her employer's HOUSE. Like, even if you're invited to a party at a friend's house, you don't just walk into their bedroom and scan the tops of dressers and then get bashful because you see an open box of condoms.

Miranda (and Emily) aren't the bad guys.

He was REALLY REALLY NOT OKAY with Warren's escalating violent behavior! But he REALLY REALLY DIDN'T KNOW HOW to do anything about it!

I have some serious sympathy for Jonathan. He wanted to be special and important and maybe rich, not an invisible loser.

OMG yessssss.

Boromir wasn't the Bad Guy. He was the voice of reason and tried to use said reason with an overly-permissive Lone Wolf, an elf, a dwarf, and FOUR HELPLESS HOBBITS.

Faramir is a bit more schmoopy, but Boromir's not a bad guy.

He probably saw all of the commotion and decided to complete his Important Cat Things somewhere quieter. And then he realized you were home and that he missed you.

I will not. Because you shouldn't stop. Because Chris Evans causes spontaneous purring.

And a complete dirtbag?

(According to Mallory, anyway.)
