This book was so so so good. For those who have the kind of mental health that isn‘t meme-able, it‘s so nice to relate to someone else‘s experience.

I love an unfiltered and upfront discussion of mental health with a hefty dose of dark humor, and this is hitting all the marks. (As is the White Hazelnut Bark coffee from Dunkin.) #sureilljoinyourcult #mariabamford #mentalhealth #mentalillness #comedyashealing

Sorry, Maria, love your comedy, didn't love your book. It doesn't help when an author spends the first chapters talking about how she didn't want to write a book but did it because of the money that was offered and would be recycling a lot of material from her stand up to fill pages.

Clare-Dragonfly That does not sound very compelling 🤔 2mo

Barnum: An American Life | Robert Wilson

I debated about using this book for this prompt in #Nonfiction2024, but I‘m finding this challenge more difficult this year. 😬 This biography of showman P.T. Barnum, known (some may say infamous?) for his exhibits that included dwarves (i.e. General Tom Thumb, Lavinia Warren, Commodore Nutt), was interesting to me as a Connecticut native. It delves into the history of Bridgeport and the various civic activities to which Barnum contributed.

BkClubCare Whoa - classics!! Also, Lavinia was from Middleboro MA where I lived for a spell and the library there has nice paintings of the couple. (edited) 2mo
Amiable @BkClubCare Tom Thumb (Charles Stratton) was from Bridgeport, which I never knew! I grew up not far from there. 2mo

The title is a little incongruous with the project (not really about cults) and the organization has room for improvement, but I can look past those things. Because I laughed. A lot. Out loud. And thought, "yeah it's cool that she wrote this so that some people who read it learn about this stuff." Would highly recommend for those that like a good life-with-the-mentals memoir!

Funny and raw, I enjoyed it even though I'd never heard of Maria before this.
