Disaster Preparedness: A Memoir by Heather Havrilesky

4.0

I am a big fan of Heather Havrilesky’s blog: www.rabbitblog.com, so I was really excited to read this book. She also used to write for Salon.com (her review of the opening ceremonies of the last winter Olympics is the funniest thing I’ve ever read). She is so smart, funny, and cynical. This memoir is also funny, but much more than that as she describes her childhood in the 70s and adolescence in the 80s. The title and the book cover don’t really fit the content, and this great read might be missed.
