This month’s pick is a book I enjoyed approximately a year ago.
Let’s Pretend this Never Happened by Jenny Lawson
Here’s my original post.
You know what though? When you’re facing a dire situation, sometimes it’s nice to have some comic relief. I haven’t laughed this hard at a silly life since David Sedaris. The two could be siblings their lives are so ridiculous. David’s might be partially his own fault, but Jenny’s is ridiculous mostly because of her strange father. When you hear the tales of the ways Dad wakes her up in the middle of the night (no it’s not sordid or anything) it’s a wonder she can form a complete sentence!
Wait until you get to the part about the puppet. Then you’ll know what I’m talking about.
Did you read it? What did you think? Love it or Hate it?

You are right. Sometimes a little humor at a time like that can be good for you. It does sound like a fun book.
i cant wait to hear what the members think of it.
