Reviews
Hilarious . . . totally inappropriateMarie Claire
A skewering but deeply affectionate portrait of her family, in the vein of David Sedaris . . . blends surprising honesty with acerbic witNew York Times
Jenny Lawson is the QUEEN of saying too much, and then saying something even worse. And that is why I adore herCaitlin Moran
GET READY. Jenny Lawson has such a disturbing, ill-mannered, rich sense of humor you will wonder, "Am I the sick one for laughing?" Everyone I gave the book to confirmed: We must all be sick, because this book IS HYSTERICAL . . . and yet it was also strangely touching at times. It's one of my favorite books in the past five yearsKathryn Stockett, # 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Help
