I love Samantha Irby. SHE JUST GETS ME. I feel like we are probably the same person. Even though I’ll never meet her in real life, I will go to my grave laughing out loud whenever I think of her essay, “Fuck it, bitch. Stay fat.”

adventurous emotional funny lighthearted medium-paced

4.0

fucking hilarious. i especially appreciated her essays on animals and working in animal welfare. sam has such a unique voice and her personification of Hellen Keller the cat and various other hypothetical inanimate objects had me gasping for air (with laughter). a great, quick, reflective and humorous read about relationships, identity, family, and adulthood.
