If you want to read something that’s going to make you laugh then I highly suggest you pick up this book! It’s a fast and fun read. The humour is right up my alley and reminds me of a lot of other great authors I love: Samantha Irby, Jenny Lawson, Sloane Crosley & Kelly Oxford. I know I’m absurdly late to the Lindy West hype train but I am FULLY on board now! I’m going to include some of my favourite quotes from the book below.

• “Also, who writes their novel on loose pages on a typewriter in an open-air shack next to a pond? Amelia Bedelia?”

• “Oh, cool, this part’s back. Old Guy Reads Out Loud: The Movie.”
(When talking about “The Notebook”)

• “Who is that creepy voice? Oh, it’s only VOLDEMORT HIDING UNDER QUIRRELL’S HAT! Quirrell’s got make pattern VOLDNESS.”

• “Fun fact: Laura Dern never goes anywhere without her elbow-length dump gloves. Both Laura Dern’s character in this movie and the Actual Laura Dern.”

• “Anyhoo, Simba goes running back to Uncle Scar (remember when you were too young to know which uncles were creepy?)”

• “I’m sorry, but if there’s a British guy in a suit who talks in the first five minutes of your movie, he’s the villain!”

If that hasn’t sold you yet, nothing will! Also, I’m questioning your humour. Just read it. I promise you’ll love it.
