Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson
lighthearted
slow-paced
0.0
This "book" is written as a stream-of-consciousness that is meant to be on twitter, not printed on pages. There is no narrative, no lessons, no theme. It's painfully "quirky" and I don't understand where the 5 star reviews are coming from. I was hoping to find comfort and solace from a fellow human who also knows what mental illness is like, but instead I got a headache from Jenny Lawson's writing style (which is best compared to an elementary school girl's diary. Sorry if I insulted any elementary school girls.)
Graphic: Mental illness
Moderate: Addiction, Alcohol, Animal death, Body shaming, Cursing, and Medical content
