The Idiot Girls' Action-Adventure Club
The Idiot Girls' Action-Adventure Club: True Tales from a Magnificent and Clumsy Life | Laurie Notaro
6 posts | 21 read | 10 to read
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Ive changed a bit since high school. Back then I said no to using and selling drugs. I washed on a normal basis and still had good credit. Introducing Laurie Notaro, the leader of the Idiot Girls Action-Adventure Club. Every day she fearlessly rises from bed to defeat the evil machinations of dolts, dimwits, and creepy boyfriendsand thats before she even puts on a bra. For the past ten years, Notaro has been entertaining Phoenix newspaper readers with her wildly amusing autobiographical exploits and unique life experiences. She writes about a world of hourly-wage jobs that require absolutely no skills, a mother who hands down judgments more forcefully than anyone seated on the Supreme Court, horrific high school reunions, and hangovers that leave her surprised that she woke up in the first place. The misadventures of Laurie and her fellow Idiot Girls (too cool to be in the Smart Group) unfold in a world that everyone will recognize but no one has ever described so hilariously. She delivers the goods: life as we all know it. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Thanks for the tags, @Eggs and @Ravenlee!

1. I've had all books signed by Laurie Notaro in person (it helps that she and I were in high school together and even had AP English with each other!) I also have a signed comic strip from Charles Schulz, and we chatted on the phone.
2. I have bought/rebought/stupidly bought more times than I count. 🤦‍♀️
3. I want to LIVE next door to Samwise Gamgee in the shire; would Frodo give me his old home? 🤔

Eggs Oh how wonderful-Notaro and Schultz 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 10mo

Well you guys, I turned 30 yesterday 😱👵🏽 !! I celebrated with friends but (shockingly) didn't get any books! Luckily my work BFFs got me these amazing books!!! One of my friends chose the Laurie Notaro because she is a Phoenix local author and she knew I liked reading local authors. Isn't that amazingly sweet!! ❤️📚❤️📚

#FallIntoBooks Day 8: Awkward

This book really captures my awkward, inner self, even if I didn't write it. And I swear, this picture could have been taken at any point in my adolescence.

Since I don't read a ton of non-fiction, I don't have many books with #subtitles. This book has a subtitle and one of my favorite covers. #aprilbookshowers
