Little Weirds by Jenny Slate

dark emotional funny hopeful reflective sad slow-paced

4.0

This is such a different type of book than I usually read, but I love Jenny's work as a comedian so I thought I would give it a try. Each chapter is a mini vignette from Jenny's mind, and it reads almost like poetry. Her observations of the world are incredible in their detail and humor, and I found myself often relating to them. I also so appreciate the vulnerability she presents in the rawness of her emotions as she is going through difficult periods in her life. Plus she manages to do so without making the reader feel drained, but instead sympathetic and somewhat hopeful. I've recommended this to so many people!
