"As a deeply uncomfortable depressed Midwest person, I relate to this excruciatingly hilarious book more than I'd like to admit." Samantha Irby, New York Times-bestselling author who still has a blog
Birth control. Body hair removal cream. Boobs. It's all weird, but also pretty normal.
Navigating racial identity, gender roles, workplace dynamics, and beauty standards, Mia Mercado's hilarious essay collection explores the contradictions of being a millennial woman, which usually means being kind of a weirdo. Whether it's spending $30 on a candle that smells like an ocean that doesn't exist, offering advice on how to ask about someone's race (spoiler: just don't, please?), quitting a job that makes you need shots of whiskey on your lunch break, or finding a more religious experience in the skincare aisle at Target than your hometown Catholic church, Mia brilliantly unpacks what it means to be a professional, absurdly beautiful, horny, cute, gross human. Essays include:
With sharp humor and wit, Mia shares the awkward, uncomfortable, surprisingly ordinary parts of life, and shows us why it's strange to feel fine and fine to feel strange.
"Mia Mercado's writing is hilarious, warm, relatable, confessional and emotional. Her writing leaps off the page!" Megan Amram, writer/producer of The Good Place & The Simpsons
"Wry, cutting, often silly . . . Fans of Samantha Irby and Sloane Crosley will want to take a look at this feminist, millennial, and comedic delight." Booklist
"Mercado's collection of essays will make you laugh out loud at the ridiculous truths of being a human." Ms. Magazine
