This is the memoir I've been waiting for, the memoir to shame all other memoirs not containing frequent mentions of taxidermy and female anatomy. This is without a doubt the most bizarre, hilarious, and memorable book I've ever read. I really appreciated Lawson's courage in sharing her I-can't-belie...
My rating of this book may not be entirely reliable, since I’ve read few humor books to compare it to. But I enjoy the author’s blog – a reliable site to visit when I’m looking for something funny,* and she updates several times a week to boot – and I definitely enjoyed this too; it made me laugh ou...

Two books are contending for "Funniest and Most Gut-wrenching Read" of this year: this, and Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened.

There is a huge difference between reading a book, and listening to the same book on CD. They are totally different experiences, and I've read/listened to several books that I love one way but hate the other. Anyway. That being said, I listened to "Let's Pretend This Never Happened", and though a...
Very funny. I had to be careful where I read it because I kept laughing, so it took me forever to read it. Consequently, it came due at the library before I could finish. I need to check it out again to finish it.
Hilarious, yet relatable and poignant. Jenny Lawson's mostly true memoir is something I'll carry with me for a long time.
