codyFirst to rec“slate can hold so much bigness and overwhelm and discuss feeling pulled under but never drowned. sometimes i feel like my massive well of joie de vivre (a gift from god!) and my crazy prey animal anxieties are incompatible but little weirds reassures me over and over that is not true”

Kt“memoir via essays as evidence that life is silly, magical, difficult and wonderful. a reminder to pay attention in a world that makes it frictionless to spend it.”

Lily Foster“In terms of “comedian memoirs” this one blows most out of the water. It’s not just funny, or well written for an actor- it’s a truly beautiful collection with a fascinating structure. It’s deeply personal without being too story oriented.”
