À propos de cet audio
A New York Times Best Seller
This essay collection from the “bitches gotta eat” blogger, writer on Hulu’s Shrill, and “one of our country’s most fierce and foulmouthed authors” (Amber Tamblyn, Vulture) is sure to make you alternately cackle with glee and cry real tears.
Whether Samantha Irby is talking about how her difficult childhood has led to a problem in making “adult” budgets; explaining why she should be the new Bachelorette (she’s “35-ish, but could easily pass for 60-something”); detailing a disastrous pilgrimage-slash-romantic-vacation to Nashville to scatter her estranged father’s ashes; sharing awkward sexual encounters; or dispensing advice on how to navigate friendships with former drinking buddies who are now suburban moms (hang in there for the Costco loot!); she’s as deft at poking fun at the ghosts of her past self as she is at capturing powerful emotional truths.

Super Funny, Relatable and Endearing Stories
Poignant essays on what it’s like to be a modern, anxious adult navigating the weirdness of the world. Told lovingly by the author in a tone that makes you feel like she’s sitting you down at a cafe and filling you in on the last 6 months of her life. Delightful from start to finish.

funny at times
This is the first book I have listened to by Samantha.What caught me off guard was the amount of descriptive sexual/genital talk. Maybe if I was younger, I'm 59, I would find this more entertaining. I do like her dry sense of humour, and reading the book herself made it stand out more.

LOVE
Hilarious and smart. Full stop. Helen is iconic. Can’t wait to pick up the rest of Irby’s titles.

hope you take the profits and see a therapist
not really funny. more just cringy stories of awkward or sad or abusive scenes that are trauma-dumped onto the listener. keep making excuses for being broken and not healing in the right ways, but also admits to never even trying or seriously considering seeking professional help. I guess I don't get the point of this book. no lessons learned, no good example set, no triumph over your history. just life sucks and I'm wallowing in it. but sassily.... alright.

Disappointed
Unfortunately I really didn’t like this book. And not every author should be reading their own book.

Not my cup of tea, but maybe it will be yours?
Personally, it just wasn't for me. Which I found odd because I love personal essays (i.e., Lena Dunham's "Not That Kind of Girl"). I'm really not sure if my opinion is exclusively because of the tangents that caused me to lose track of the original subject, or if it's also the subject matter that I struggle to relate with. Normally I'm not one who needs to be able to have a relatable personal experience to appreciate an essay, but in this case I just didn't see the humour. I couldn't find the humour in the incredibly dark subject matter (save and except for the cat, Helen Keller. That was awesome...until the final cat essay.)
