Every teenager wants to fit in and be just like everybody else. So imagine how hard that is when your father runs a taxidermy business out of the family home, your mother runs the student cafeteria, and your sister has just been elected high school mascot, which means she walks the halls in a giant bird costume. But as Jenny Lawson grows up, falls in love, gets engaged – in a way that is as disastrous as it is romantic – and starts a family of her own, she learns that life’s most absurd and humiliating moments, the ones we wish we could pretend had never happened, are the very same moments that make us who we are.

This is an often poignant, sometimes disturbing, but always hilarious book from a writer that dares to say your deepest and strangest thoughts out loud. Like laughter at a funeral, it is both highly irreverent and impossible to stop once you’ve started . . .

Review:

‘Jenny Lawson is the QUEEN of saying too much, and then saying something even worse. And that is why I adore her’

Caitlin 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 years.' Kathryn Stockett, # 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Help

‘Poignant, funny and insane... a celebration of the strength and character it takes to withstand life’s curveballs’ Stylist

‘Even when I was funny, I wasn’t this funny.’ Augusten Burroughs, author of Running With Scissors

‘Displays the wit that’s made her a hit on the Web... hilarious’ Booklist

‘Lawson writes with a rambling irreverence that makes you wish she were your best friend’ Entertainment Weekly

Endlessly entertaining and consistently jaw-dropping’. Glamour

‘There’s something wrong with Jenny Lawson – magnificently wrong. I defy you to read her work and not hurt yourself laughing.’ Jen Lancaster

‘Fucked up in the best possible way. Adorably offensive.’ Jesus*

*Jesus is Jenny Lawson’s hairdresser. He pronounces his name differently from that other Jesus.



‘Jenny Lawson’s writing is nothing less than revolutionary... I say this without a hint of exaggeration: she may be one of the most progressive women’s voices of our time.’ Karen Walrond, author of The Beauty of Different
Book Description:
