Description
The debut book from the authors behind the global media sensation Shit You Should Care About.
Shit You Should Care About was launched as a WordPress blog by three best friends in the back of a political science lecture. Today, it's a global ecosystem of content - two podcasts, 3.5 million Instagram followers and a daily newsy. They are your culture vultures, news agents and (reluctant) agony aunts all rolled into one.
Make It Make Sense is a collage of cultural analysis, anecdotes, personal essays, poems and lists, interplayed like a conversation between friends. So sharp they'll make you wince, so honest that you might feel uncomfortable with what's reflecting back at you, so funny you'll want to take a photo and send it to your best friend.
It's the bedside table essential for women who've felt their way through life and want that experience reflected back at them. When everything feels like it's whooshing away in an endless scroll, Make It Make Sense holds the answers (or questions) to what to do with all these big feelings.
