Kris Carr got a rare form of cancer at age 31, and she decided to share her wisdom for young people with old-people diagnoses in a book, and a blog, called "Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips." She was on Oprah on Monday! Her book made Times health blogger Tara Parker-Pope feel like she'd "just had three cups of coffee." Great! But: Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips? Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips? We could almost get behind this title if this book was by a member of the semi-defunct pop group TLC. Instead it is a documentary on TLC.
