Yours Cruelly, Elvira, by Cassandra Peterson

The Mistress of the Dark is not only a sexy horror icon, she’s a hilarious and talented writer, too!  I laughed out loud from beginning to end of this memoir, as Cassandra/Elvira charts the glitz, glamour, and celebrities that followed her from her early career dancing as a Vegas showgirl to her current big hair and runaway fame.  My only quibble with it all is that I can’t claim the title “Queen of Halloween” for myself.
