PositiveLibrary Journal... most of these pieces assume that readers already have a healthy respect for intuition ...

Samantha Irby
RaveLibrary Journal... humor and a vivid, resonant voice ... A sheer delight for Irby’s legions of fans. For those new to her work, or who enjoy Jenny Lawson, Roxane Gay, Jenny Slate, or Nora Ephron, this should be obtained immediately.
Adrienne Raphel
PositiveLibrary JournalInvestigating the puzzle from all sides is poet Raphel\'s...stated goal, and she means it, giving depth to a two dimensional puzzle ... Raphel’s approach is reminiscent of Mary Roach’s work, and even cruciverbalists well versed in their hobby’s history will discover something illuminating here. Nonpuzzling readers may discover a new hobby.
Jenny Slate
PositiveLibrary JournalThose familiar with Slate’s previous works will recognize her slightly askew perception and delightful way of reframing the familiar. Here she has full rein with language, and her style is less precise than fulsome, throwing lots of things at the wall and seeing what sticks. Her subject is her whole self but fragmented, in her words, \'a weird party for a woman who has returned from grief,\' both vulnerable and moving, a party even non-partygoers might like to attend ... This volume mixes the oddball self-examination of Jenny Lawson with moments of poetic insight. Recommended for lovers of fizzy memoirs.
