this book was fine; it has some nice bits and moments, but it didnt rly engage me and i didnt rly feel anything reading it. the problem is it's only fine, which is a lil problematic as it's supposed to be funny.

5.0

A very funny book that had me laughing out loud a few times. My spouse even asked me to read a few things out loud so that we could laugh together.

Amy manages to keep things lighthearted throughout the book while also touching heavy topics such as sexism, childbirth, motherhood, divorce, and depression, just to name a few.

By no fault of the author a few things in this book have not aged well. Amy refers to Louise CK as a good dear friend of hers and deadnames Elliot page, but this is only because this book was written in 2014. Again, this is no fault of the author—just something to be aware of, as it may be triggering to some readers.
