Critic Reviews
“A hilarious collection”
Mashable
Will certainly help you, should you perhaps decide to indulge in a spot of “self-gifting” in this instance, survive Christmas with your more crazed relatives -- Rachel Cooke Observer
Fantastic, hilarious, emotional Mayaland
You may have to push this book away for fear you'll hurt yourself laughing, but its wisdom and humanity – no hyperbole here – are too magnetic to keep at bay for long -- Mary Pols People Magazine
Honest, poignant and ridiculously silly in all the best ways and I'm better for having read it. Plus, doggies! Jenny Lawson, The Bloggess
