⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I don‘t watch SNL, but I love humorous memoirs, so when a friend recently recommended this, I placed a hold. This guy is married to Scarlett Johansson, y‘all (I‘m slow to celeb news). Anyway, Jost, a comedy writer, is unsurprisingly a fantastic, often self-deprecating, storyteller. That said, his heartfelt essay about his mom during 9/11 was a real standout. Really enjoyed this. Great on audio!

Little chipmunk songs 🤣🤣

CatLass007 I didn‘t want to get the audiobook because the print version has pictures. I never would‘ve thought to play the music at 1.5 speed. 😁 8h
ShananigansReads @CatLass007 I rarely listen to a book at regular speed. So it‘s an amusing side effect. I debated reading the print version but I wanted to hear dolly reading it. Probably should have gotten both and had a dual experience. now

I highly recommend the audio. Leslie Jones read it herself and said she did not read it word for word, and I've heard there was added content. Listening to her was like having a conversation. It felt like she was in the room talking to me. Her story is amazing. She is amazing, and funny, and real. I was cheering her on. She is a great example of a person advocating for themselves. If swearing offends you, the book is not for you.

ChaoticMissAdventures One of my favorite things is when a funny person reads their own books and sneaks things in!

This was a fantastic but disturbing, haunting and eye-opening read. It was tough to read but mesmerizing at the same time. It made me think hard about my preconceptions about domestic abuse.

kwmg40 I wanted to finish this book, as it was in progress and extremely compelling, but I am so ready to move onto lighthearted seasonal books now! 23h

Great memoir of the author growing up in Alabama. I learned so much from him and his story. I could relate in some places but in more I was able to listen. I am thankful for this book and would encourage others to read it.
