This book made me laugh out loud and actively cringe on behalf of the author.
Samantha Irby is way too real sometimes…

Recently read 3 other Samantha Irby essay collections, so some of the essays were repetitive. Overall very good though

Good thing I was reading this while watching how the US Election unfolds. The title is very apt for the situation and it like asking, “Another 4 years? Wow, No Thank You!”

OK going back to the book, this is the first time I read essay collections and it always makes me think of school essays, those essays you were asked to do with three thousand words. I would probably prefer short stories but this one brought me so many laugh out and smiling moments.

Wow, No Thank You is a collection of essays about the author’s life experiences. A very sarcastic take on life, self-deprecating at its best. There are lots relatable moments, some are too graphic for me and lots of putting herself down too much. Some essays are funny at its best and some are way too long but enjoyed reading it if just to take away your anxious feeling!

Yeah, I somehow hadn't heard of Sam Irby before now and I've been spending the last few weeks mainlining everything she's written so far from the library (and finding her first book remaindered at another store so yay). Bless her ability to make me straight up laugh my ass off, which, admittedly, not that helpful to the partner who is sometimes sleeping next to me when I read her (love you honey!), but he loves hearing the excerpts. Good shit, some of these are clearly recycled listcicles, but man, I'd find a way to reuse those wherever possible too once I'd gotten those out.

This book cracked me up. It can totally be read chapter by chapter with no need for strong connections. I really have no idea how to even describe it but I'm glad I read it and especially when I did. I'll be looking for more of her work.

Acerbic and laugh out loud hysterical. I love Samantha Irby so much. I picked up "We are Never Meeting in Real Life" at an airport years ago, and have been obsessed with her since.

DNF @18%. Samantha Irby is entertaining, but her books are sort of stream-of-consciousness in an aimless way. Enjoyable, but lengthy and not much different from her previous work.

Laughed so hard. Audio is great!
