Meaty: Essays

The smart, edgy, hilarious, and unabashedly raunchy New York Times bestselling author explodes onto the printed page in her uproarious first collection of essays. 

"Whether she’s writing about her latest inflammatory bowel disease attack or documenting a sexual escapade gone awry (sometimes simultaneously), you’ll most likely be able to relate to Irby’s tell-all book. Her raw honesty and scathing sense of humor will make you laugh out loud."

Irby laughs her way through tragicomic mishaps, neuroses, and taboos as she struggles through adulthood: chin hairs, depression, bad sex, failed relationships, masturbation, taco feasts, inflammatory bowel disease and more. Updated with her favorite Instagramable, couch-friendly recipes, this much-beloved romp is treat for anyone in dire need of Irby's infamous, scathing wit and poignant candor.

I truly enjoyed this book. I loved that the author talks about a lot of stuff that happens to just about everyone, but no one talks about. The humor was great and I flew through the book.

I can't wait to read her other books!

Five stars for incredible raunchy entertainment value. It was also pretty interesting, touching, and funny. Irby is definitely smart and funny.
