MINDY KALING lives in rural New Hampshire and does not own a TV.
"Kaling has written a second book that's funnier, sharper and more
confident than her 2011 collection of personal essays and pop
culture riffs called Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other
Concerns). Even the title of that initial effort implied that
Kaling was trying to find her place; the tone of this new one
announces that she's found it and is more than comfortable inviting
people to spend time with her there."--Washington Post "Funny,
thoughtful essays and anecdotes written in the star's trademark
voice. But this time around, things are just little more
grown-up...This is Kaling at the height of her power."--USA Today
"Mindy Kaling may be gearing up for the fourth season of her TV
show, The Mindy Project, but that didn't deter her from writing
another wildly entertaining and completely relatable book... Her
first memoir, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other
Concerns), spent time on several best-seller lists. Why Not Me?
will certainly follow in its footsteps."--Associated Press
"Hilarious...Kaling knows her strengths, and plays to them
brilliantly...Aside from that effortlessly conversational tone and
her pitch-perfect humor, Kaling's biggest strength here is
curatorial. She gives us the candy we came for - the advice, the
anecdotes, the straight talk on body image - but sprinkles in
something extra."--Entertainment Weekly, A- "Why Not Me? is all
that we've come to expect from the creator and star of The Mindy
Project refreshing, confident, genuine, and, yes, absolutely
hilarious." --Refinery29 "...insightful personal essays from one of
Hollywood's cleverest writers... Intrepid and often irreverent,
Kaling humbly probes her own triumphs and defeats with
laugh-out-loud results". --Kirkus Reviews "Kaling's irreverent take
on life is both uproariously funny and dead-on...Advice on a
variety of topics--including why extensions make everyone more
beautiful and how the world needs to start assuming that all young
women are confident--make this an empowering and entertaining
read."--Publishers Weekly
