Let's Pretend This Never Happened: (a Mostly True Memoir)

For fans of Tina Fey and David Sedaris-Internet star Jenny Lawson, aka The Bloggess, makes her literary debut.

Jenny Lawson realized that the most mortifying moments of our lives-the ones we'd like to pretend never happened-are in fact the ones that define us. In the #1 New York Times bestseller, Let's Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson takes readers on a hilarious journey recalling her bizarre upbringing in rural Texas, her devastatingly awkward high school years, and her relationship with her long-suffering husband, Victor. Chapters include: "Stanley the Magical, Talking Squirrel"; "A Series of Angry Post-It Notes to My Husband"; "My Vagina Is Fine. Thanks for Asking"; "And Then I Snuck a Dead Cuban Alligator on an Airplane." Pictures with captions (no one would believe these things without proof) accompany the text.

Quirky and Unique

What a hoot it was to read this book. I love the way Jenny Lawson looks at life, the way she accepts the insane as ordinary...the way she accepts who she is in all her quirkiness. This is a fun and clever book that kept me laughing, crying, smiling, and embracing my own uniqueness. I now want a stuffed squirrel.
