"Buckle in for TMI hilarity with Samantha Irby’s essay collection. No topic is too intimate or too gross for this always-frank writer, a woman who has depression, Crohn’s disease and a history of passing “gerbil-size” period clots. With raw honesty, Irby makes the mundanity of living in Kalamazoo, Mich., laugh-out-loud hilarious – everything from homeownership (“must I really learn things about grass”) to buying a car (which her wife immediately “defiled” with “MOM S***” like reusable grocery bags and granola bars). Irby offers desperately needed comic relief from pandemic stress."
