From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wow, No Thank You

Brilliant, hilarious and perspicacious - ELIZABETH DAY

SO funny. - SARA PASCOE

Wildly, seditiously funny. - New York Times

Sam Irby is the king of sparkling misanthropy and tender, loving dread. - Jia Tolentino

This is not an advice book. Samantha Irby doesn't know anything. After fleeing Chicago to quarantine at home in Michigan, Irby finds herself bleaching groceries and wondering if her upper lip hairs are visible on Zoom. Her career reaches new heights: she gets to work with the iconic ladies of Sex and the Cityβ€”her dream!β€”but behind the newfound glam, Irby is just trying to keep her life together.

Our friend in print is back, on point, and ready to take us with her, from adopting Abe (her scrawny, watery-eyed firstborn dog) to her favourite, extremely specific porn searches (including two old nuns).
