Be Ready When Luck Happens- a memoir by Ina Garten
Brent Jones
Of course, I gave this five stars. Why wouldn’t anyone? Ina’s memoir is her life story, and there is no reason to believe it is anything but authentic. She shows her passion and perseverance to overcome obstacles and achieve her goals in life. It doesn’t take long in her story to understand that her saying, “Be Ready When the Luck Happens,” means that being ready also means being true to yourself. Ina's memoir is not just a recount of her life, but a source of inspiration and valuable life lessons that can motivate and guide us in our own journeys.
As you read this memoir, it becomes clear that Ina stands her ground on things she wants, but those things have something in common. What they have in common has more to do with what she wants from those things. The common thread is quality. She looks for quality in her real estate options, the ingredients of the food she makes, the flowers she arranges, and much more. This emphasis on quality truly reflects the depth of Ina's character.
