The Fran Lebowitz Reader by Fran Lebowitz
Did not finish book. Stopped at 32%.

I don't know if I read it at not the right moment in my life; but I genuinely have no idea what Lebowitz is trying to accomplish with any of what she wrote, it feels a lot like she's rambling with no destination 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
