Publisher's Summary

A New York Times best seller!

By the actress, writer, and one of the funniest women on Twitter, an outrageous, hysterical memoir of acting on impulse, plotting elaborate hoaxes, and refusing to acknowledge boundaries in any form.

Jenny Mollen is an actress and writer living in Los Angeles. She is also a wife, married to a famous guy (which is annoying only because he gets free shit and she doesn't). She doesn't want much from life. Just to be loved - by everybody: her parents, her dogs, her ex-boyfriends, her ex-boyfriends' dogs, her husband, her husband's ex-girlfriends, her husband's ex-girlfriend's new boyfriends, etc. Some people might call that impulse crazy, but isn't "crazy" really just a word boring people use to describe fun people? (And Jenny is really, really fun, you guys!)

In this program, you'll find stories of Jenny at her most genuine, whether it's stalking her therapist (because he knows everything about her so shouldn't she get to know everything about him?); throwing a bachelorette party so bad that one of the guests is suspected dead; or answering the eternal question: Would your best friend blow your husband on a car ride to dinner if she didn't know you were hiding in the backseat?

I Like You Just the Way I Am is about not doing the right thing - about indulging your inner crazy person. It is Jenny when she's not trying to impress anyone or come across as a responsible, level-headed member of society. With any luck it will make you better acquainted with who you really are and what you really want. Which, let's be honest, is most likely someone else's email password.

So good I immediately searched for more from her!

I hadn't heard of Jenny before this book and I'm so glad I took a chance on her. She's smart and funny and so honest! I hope she keeps writing and now I need to find her in something on screen as well. (she also made me really like her husband in her subsequent book, Live Fast Die Hot!

Um

Don't worry. No real spoilers. The beginning drew my sympathy. The ex-girlfriend business made me seriously believe she needs help.....then I realized that it took a great deal of courage to be so honest. Honesty was definitely a key element. She didn't hold back. Keeps the reader engaged and there's even a few laughs. I recommend that you read this book

An honest book

I got this book on a deal as I had never heard of Jenny. Her stories appeared to be VERY HONEST and not always showing her on the best light. She doesn’t seem relatable, but she did make all of her adventures sound interesting and fun.

Was even better as she narrated it herself, so she knew the exact tone too use. I would recommend this book.

Experience a worldview very different from yours

Not very relatable, but entertaining enough to be worth a listen. A great background for monotonous tasks at work -- makes a slow day go by faster.

Super entertaining

I purchased this as an audible daily sale. Once in awhile you get a good one. This one was definitely one of those ones! So funny and really entertaining! Laughed out loud lots. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars for story only because why did it end so suddenly?! I was soo disappointed when it was suddenly over so abruptly.
The description of the book doesn’t really justify the actual story though. It’s really much better than it sounds. A true case of judging a book by its cover when I shouldn’t have.

Funny and smart

I got way more than I expected. Thank you to the author for the raw honesty wrapped in eloquent humour. Thank you for the therapy !!!! My heart is so much lighter now, you've shared some deep stuff Jenny. I immediately purchased your second book (the moment that I knew it will not be an average "Mommy memoir") and followed you on Instagram. Bravo!

100% Worth it

The book has you peer into the life Jenny Mollen. It is a tail worth noting that this is not a typical woman nor should be ever ignored as she clearly has a wonderful mind to be extra in the best way possible while making you hate how little you have lived at the same time. This book is going to be, like her, something you can stopping about

To the author. Do a follow up, please.

Not for me

I really did try to like it but it just wasn’t very funny and some of the stories dragged on. Nothing super interesting, just an average life. The narration kind of got to me after awhile.
