This was in my #queerbookbox today! I'm so excited, because it was actually fairly high up on the list of books I wanted to buy. I'll probably get around to reading this next month or so, which is sooner than I usually read QBB books 🤣

Not really a #bookhaul since I just came home with one book, but I'm excited for this one. Really love #samanthairby and her quirky sense of humour.
Started my August reading of short story and essay collections with this one. Listening to the #audiobook and omg she is so funny! It's an excellent collection of essays so far. I will probably recommend this to most anyone. #amreadingessays #blackauthors #samanthairby
This woman has me in stitches. Highly recommend:
1. Hung Up!
2. Are You Familiar With My Work?
3. Hysterical!
4. Body Negativity
5. A Guide to Simple Home Repairs
If you‘re reading and find yourself wishing someone had written a blog and included every song from the mix-tape essay so you could follow along.....
I got you, boo.

OMG!! 😱 *Jaw Drops!!* I was going to see Samantha Irby on her book tour in Kalamazoo, MI this April (since she‘s one of my fave authors) and once the tour was canceled she offered to personalize our books anyway. I couldn‘t think of what I wanted it to say so I just requested “To Kenya from Samatha Irby” but she wrote her OWN caption instead and made it a million times more special!! ♥️ She is AMAZING and sweet!!!! 😃#WowNoThankYou #SamanthaIrby
I GOT THIS GALLEY IN THE MAIL TODAY AND I AM SO EXCITED .

It's been a long few weeks, but I think I'm through the worst of it. I'm celebrating tonight by parking in this recliner for hours and devouring all of the Samantha Irby I can get. #currentlyreading #samanthairby
I look forward to Chicago's Printers' Row Lit Fest ALL YEAR! I got to attend 2 great author events (#SamanthaIrby #ScaachiKoul and #JennyAllen in conversation with #TriciaBobeda of #nerdettepodcast , and #LuvvieAjayi in conversation with #LollyBowean), and I went on a pretty sweet (though conservative by my standards) book spree. Life is good!
"Today, 2/13/10, is my birthday. I am excited because I am 30 years old and I don't have a man in my life. I haven't had any children...I don't have any major accomplishments of note. I don't own any property. I have a "job" and not a "career". I am incapable of going grocery shopping. (In my refrigerator: Campari, club soda, orange juice, High Life.) I haven't paid my electric bill in the last three months..." #SamanthaIrby just gets me. ?
