    Leslie really does leave every room better than she found it. She's such a natural light and absolutely hilarious. I loved this touching moment with the high school newspaper.

    The energy she exudes is incredible and beyond words. Leslie is one of my favorite casts among SNL members. She’s outstanding and impressively unique every time she’s on screen. Can’t argue with that

    I used to think that Leslie Jones needed to be protected at all costs, especially when she was internet-bullied years ago because of Ghostbusters. But after listening to her audiobook, I realized I was wrong. She is a kick-ass warrior who can take care of herself thank you very much. Such an inspiration!

    Ms. Kelly, Crew and Ms. Leslie, i agree, balance of laughter is out of sync. What I do know, there are others out there who use laughter and humor to avoid feelings and doing the important inner self work. Writing a book is a big deal. And it seems many celebretities have writen their books in the last 3 years. Barabara Streisland, wrote one too and has been around for ever. I have seen Ms. Leslie on instagram channel talking about hate/politics and how black people are being mistreated. I know Ms. Leslie, had a hard time with some of the general public. I find her hightly intelligent, sensitive, passionate about topics, and a funny woman. How cool, she is a writer! And at times, wrote for SNL. Sweet!
