Having been a follower of Shane Burcaw's YouTube chanel Squirmy and Grubs (which he creates with girlfriend Hannah Aylward) for some time, I was excited for the release of Burcaw's newest book Strangers Assume My Girlfriend is My Nurse. Fellow followers of Burcaw's chanel or written work will be familiar with his trademark sarcastic wit and Strangers Assume certainly did not dissapoint. This series of essays brings the reader up close and personal with the intimate details of Shane's relationships with family, friends, and strangers. The way Burcaw relates his interactions with perfect strangers and his own psychological reactions to them pushes readers to consider their own interactions with people with disabilities in their own lives. Shining a bright light on society's perceptions of people with disabilities Strangers Assume My Girlfriend is My Nurse is sure to stick with readers long after the final page.

I discovered Shane and Hannah first on YouTube. They are both hilarious and engaging on video. It was nice to read some of Shane's writing, as well. I've learned a lot from him.
I read this in just over a day. It got me out of my reading slump!

YOU NEED TO READ!! This is an absolute must read of all time funny but so real hits the emotions of living with a disability right on. I haven’t read his first book yet but I just ordered it yesterday and I can’t wait to read it. I know I know I’m reading them out of order but who knew I would like this one so much
