I loved this!
Now, don‘t ostracise me from Litsy but this is the first Irby I‘ve read / listened to….
I‘m definitely going to listen to more and have found two on Scribd audio (Wow, No Thank You and We Are Never Meeting in Real Life)

Samantha Irby is hilarious.
And although there were a few essays that weren't exactly my cuppa (porn preferences, toilet tales, and gastrointestinal anecdotes), there was plenty of her signature self-deprecating humor and spot-on observations to carry this collection through. I especially loved "The Last Normal Day," "How to Look Cool in Front of Teens?", and "Please Invite Me to Your Party."

Samantha Irby is always a bit much for me in terms of graphically discussing bodily functions; I‘m not a poo humor kind of girl, but she is. That said, I still mostly enjoyed this book; however, I thought the Sex and the City essay would never end. It was funny for the first few pages but got old. I‘m still enjoying Brandi Carlile on my walks. #audiowalk
I love all of Samantha Irby's books so far, so I'm really looking forward to her newest one! #catsoflitsy #chaplin
In 2018 I was on a disaster work trip full of cancelled flights at both ends and a dinner with people holding Very Important Titles in a restaurant so intimidatingly fancy that my regular-person ass cried in the hotel afterward from pent-up anxiety- but I was reading a Samantha Irby book and it kept me laughing. I'm listening to her new book on a work trip again, this time a bit older and wiser. But I still appreciate having her voice with me. ❤️
I adore Samantha Irby so so very much. She is one of the few authors that consistently make me laugh out loud. This was the perfect accompaniment to a trash work week. 👍🏼
The only thing I love more than a new Samantha Irby book is Sam herself reading it to me on audio. I just loved this. Lots of snort laughing plus appreciation that she‘s so willing to share the parts of herself most people wouldn‘t. And the way she would rewrite old Sex and the City episodes is a hoot!
Pretty sure this is my favorite quote in the whole book, though there‘s lots of competition. I think other childless by choice folks like myself will appreciate this one. 😂
New release day! This‘ll be up next on my audio list, can‘t wait.
I love that she continues to have these bright background animal covers on all her books. 🧡
ARC out in May
This was super hit or miss. I was literally laughing out loud at the first 2 essays, and then 3 pages into the 23 page Sex in the City one I had to skip to the next one.
The humor feels crasser than her previous book. I am not a prude but 20 pages of dissecting Nun porn was too much.
But then I would turn the page and be laughing again at her essay on Dave Matthews.
It is a book to borrow if you enjoyed her others.
Ready for my abs to hurt
When your dog is “Quietly Hostile” because he doesn‘t want you reading 😂😂😂😂
Soo excited for this book!!! 😃 this lady never fails with her hilarious, yet very real and down to earth essays. I‘m glad to see her back. 😎
