Something about her telling her own story in her voice made it 10x funnier.

Everything is kind of padded and sanitized for your protection, sort of like a huge adult daycare, but with alcohol and cruise directors to entertain you. Hilarious!

Also, I am interested in learning about other books you've enjoyed, so feel free to share.<br /><br />Not sure why they linky didn't work.

She's a humorist. She uses that to attack our sexist society. I'm a 60-something man who thinks Tina is sexy. But if I used those words, it would be "boys will be boys". My book rating was 6 of 10.
