I wanted so badly to enjoy this book, but again, here I am not finishing a book because it just lost me. While I've enjoyed Lindy West in other venues, particularly on podcasts or in her editorial writing, I felt as if all of the stories in this book were the same thing. Unfortunately I made it about 1/4 of the way through and jut stopped.

There was some stuff that hit way too close to home (specifically about her father’s death) but all in all I really liked it. Was the humor way too crude for me throughout? You bet. Did I love hearing from her mouth her thoughts on her abortion and fatness in general??? ABSOLUTELY. It made for a quick listen with some parts that I loved and others I didn’t
