Searching for Coach Taylor

Nothing Like I Imagined

By: Mindy Kaling

Narrated by: Mindy Kaling

A totally relatable essay on showing up to adult life alone, by the singular (and single) writer, producer, and star of Late Night.

In lieu of a perfect, hypothetical future husband, Mindy Kaling is thinking a lot about being single. Pros? She can marathon any Christine Baranski show she wants. Cons? Dealing with married couples and their condescension at cocktail parties. But until a gorgeous, morally flawless, preferably tall TV dad materializes in three dimensions, Mindy can cope with waiting it out (from the driver’s seat).

From the acclaimed writer, actor, director, producer, and New York Times bestselling author comes Nothing Like I Imagined. In these essays, Mindy Kaling shares the latest chapters of a multitasking life in Hollywood. Listen to them in a single sitting. They’re pitch-perfect.

Even celebs have celeb crushes. Narrated by the author, short story feels like a phone call with the actress about her day. Tidbits about her life in each page.

love Mindys perspective

Mindy discussed being an unmarried, single mother. From not having a 'plus one' for parties and get togethers but also to reading stories to her daughter, the ones with 'daddy's' in them. Here's hoping for Coach Tom - although, I know she'll be just fine without him.
