I just finished The Friday Afternoon Club and I give it ✩✩✩✩.
I don't know a lot about Griffin Dunne, only that I really hated the movie "After Hours". I knew he produced a lot of stuff but I had no idea he was Dominick Dunne's son, John Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion's nephew, and Carrie Fisher's best friend. This was a well written memoir but it's not a Hollywood tell-all--his sister was murdered by a boyfriend and much of the story is about the murder, the trial, and the impact it had on his family. It concludes right after he marries Cary Lowell (I had no idea he was married to Cary Lowell) and I would read the next volume of his memoir.
