100 Things to Hate Before You Die

Comedian Claudia Stavola understands we’re living in sensitive times and the word hate is controversial, so she doesn’t use it loosely. She only uses it for serious infractions like gender reveal parties, guys who wear shorts when it’s forty below, and Gwyneth Paltrow’s vagina candle. You’ll be thoroughly entertained and in awe of how Stavola’s raucous sarcasm mirrors your inner most thoughts in this hilarious collection of easy-to-read essays. With her witty and insightful observations, she’s like a modern-day George Carlin, except hairier. (Hey, she’s Italian. She was born with a mustache).100 Things to Hate Before You Die is astute, honest, and laugh-out-loud funny. Claudia shares her aggravation over a range of topics from mundane things like Fakebook, crappy gift-givers, and ukuleles on talent show auditions, to more thought-provoking topics such as people with no shame, the need for a license to parent, and the death of Eddie Van Halen. Delivered with razor-sharp force, Stavola’s hysterical and unique takes on everyday a**holes makes this not only a great read for comedy lovers, but a must-read.
