This was chosen for my Female Author's Book Club one month and I was excited to read a memoir for the first time in a while. I can see why so many people thoroughly enjoyed this book, but it just wasn't for me. Haddish tells the story of overcoming a lot of hardships and difficult times in her life to become a successful female comedian. She is an extremely resilient woman with a story I think resonates with a lot of people, because most of us are trying to overcome some sort of trauma to move forward in our lives. The hopeful tone of this book is what I found to be the biggest positive in my reading experience. It didn't seem to matter what she was going through, Tiffany always found a way to move closer to what she wanted for herself.
Where this book took a really big turn for me is
The Last Black Unicorn is not a laugh out loud kind of funny. I think a lot of the humor comes from Tiffany's personality, and if you don't know much about her or don't like her personal humor then it goes without saying that this might not be for you. That's what it came down to for me. I have a lot of respect for her journey and can't deny she is one tough woman, but I had my issues with this book. I couldn't connect with her humor and on the surface it felt like she was treating very serious situations a bit too lightly.
