Reviews

A Barnes & Noble Holiday 2013 Discover Great New Writers Selection An Emily Books Book Club Selection A Publishers Weekly Fall 2013 Big Books by Small Presses A COSMO Best 22 Books of the Year For Women, By Women "Raunchy, funny and vivid...Those faint of heart beware...strap in and get ready for a roller-coaster ride to remember."
-- Kirkus Reviews "Amazingly crass, defiant, witty, terrifying, and wondrous...[Irby] cuts the bawdy, wickedly funny pieces with some truly poignant palate cleansers...Irby's voice is raw, gripping, and ...Delicious."
-- Booklist "Her candor in style and subject matter--mostly sex, dating, and the general lousiness of men--has earned Samantha Irby a cult following... Honesty mixed with self-deprecating humor is what propels reader."
-- Time Out Chicago "Samantha Irby is as bad as she wants to be."
-- Chicago Tribune "Whether she's writing about her latest inflammatory bowel disease attack or documenting a sexual escapade gone awry (sometimes simultaneously), you'll most likely be able to relate to Irby's tell-all book. Her raw honesty and scathing sense of humor will make you laugh out loud..."
-- JET "There is no summing up Sam--no writerly preface, no small-talk tidbits, no rundown of vital stats that can suffice. She is irreducible, like a prime number, or a quark [...] Irby's writing has a powerfully intimacy, a direct connection between her and her readers. On the page, she's more an essayist than a storyteller per se, with the essayist's intellectual habits--exploring ideas, contradicting herself, poking thoughts to see if they burst, and then reveling in the mess."
-- Chicago Reader "Irby has the rare ability to divulge her personal problems to an expansive, invisible Internet audience and still dazzle a crowded room of literati."
-- Chicago Magazine
