I keep seeing Shrill pop up on my TV but haven't been able to bring myself to give it a shot. I think it's the title. I'm not a fan of shrillness, even when I can embody it at times.
Luckily, I am a fan of my library and their audiobook collection. And that's how I can to listen to this great memoir by Lindy West, someone I don't remember ever hearing of before. I'm glad to have learned about her and count myself as a fan now, even though there was no shrillness in her narration.

I personally really enjoyed this book. I enjoy Lindy in general but we don’t seem to agree on humor, which is totally fine we don’t need to. 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
