Items related to Furiously Happy
It's the difference between surviving life and living life. It's the difference between taking a shower and teaching your monkey butler how to shampoo your hair.
Jenny Lawson - aka The Bloggess - returns with the follow-up to her bestselling memoir Let's Pretend This Never Happened, recounting stories from everyday family life in her inimitably frank, hilarious, bizarre and endearing way. She describes her battles with depression and anxiety and her quest to overcome them by saying yes to even the absurdist opportunities and making the good times gloriously good. For as Jenny says: 'You can't experience pain without also experiencing the baffling and ridiculous moments of being fiercely, unapologetically, intensely and (above all) furiously happy...' It's a philosophy that has - quite literally - saved her life.

Book Description:
Praise for Jenny Lawson:
"We re living in an era of bestselling books by female comedians But Lawson s book needs no lovable, familiar face on the front cover She s unapologetic, candid, outrageous, and the book reaches new levels of hilarity because of it." Entertainment Weekly (A)
Jenny made me laugh so hard I feared for my safety! I think that's how she was able to get past my defenses and make me feel more okay about myself. Allie Brosh
You'll laugh, wince, writhe in discomfort, cry, then laugh again But the two things you'll never do is doubt Jenny's brilliance or her fearlessness She's changing the conversation one rented sloth at a time. Brene Brown
Lawson's self-deprecating humor is not only gaspingly funny and wonderfully inappropriate; it allows her to speak...in a real and raw way. O, The Oprah Magazine
Take one part David Sedaris and two parts Chelsea Handler and you'll have some inkling of the cockeyed humor of Jenny Lawson...[She] flaunts the sort of fearless comedic chops that will make you spurt Diet Coke through your nose. Parade
