Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * This essay collection from the "bitches gotta eat" blogger, writer on Hulu's Shrill and HBO's And Just Like That , and "one of our country's most fierce and foulmouthed authors" (Amber Tamblyn, Vulture ) is sure to make you alternately cackle with glee and cry real tears.
"A sidesplitting polemicist for the most awful situations."-- The New York Times
Whether Samantha Irby is talking about how her difficult childhood has led to a problem in making "adult" budgets; explaining why she should be the new Bachelorette (she's "35-ish, but could easily pass for 60-something"); detailing a disastrous pilgrimage-slash-romantic-vacation to Nashville to scatter her estranged father's ashes; sharing awkward sexual encounters; or dispensing advice on how to navigate friendships with former drinking buddies who are now suburban moms (hang in there for the Costco loot!); she's as deft at poking fun at the ghosts of her past self as she is at capturing powerful emotional truths.
