Broken was the first Jenny Lawson book I ever read.  It has not been the last.  She is me, she is you, she is no one but her.  She will make you laugh, then cry, then laugh-cry.  Read this book!!

You must listen to this book in McConaughey's southern, distinctive drawl.  You will be better for it.  He is a TRUE storyteller. I gasped and shook my head and said absolutely no way.  I cried. I laughed.  I sighed at a life well lived!

HOT POCKETS.  My whole family loves Jim Gaffigan.  He's clean, for the most part and almost always family friendly.  But he's so relatable.  I read this one with my daughter while we were moving states. So funny.

SUCH a fun book read by Neil Patrick Harris.  Anything by NPH is just better. It's a wild ride.  It starts slow but becomes unputdownable.  So dont give up.
