Former BuzzFeed senior writer Erin Chack hits you in the guts, the feels, and the funny bone all at once with this collection of personal essays that captures the agony and ecstasy of the millennial experience, chronicling milestones on the path to adulthood.
“A heartfelt celebration of goofiness in all its glory.”—Booklist
“A young adult version of Tina Fey’s Bossypants.”—Josh Sundquist, bestselling author of We Should Hang Out Sometime
With humor and heart, Erin chronicles everything from her first kiss (“Sean’s tongue! In my mouth! Slippery and wet like a slug in the rain”) to her struggles with anxiety (“When people throw caution to the wind, I am stuck imagining the poor soul who has to break his back sweeping caution into a dustpan”) to her first chemotherapy session at age nineteen.
Erin offers a fresh perspective on universal themes of growing up, love, and resilience. She writes about surviving cancer at age nineteen, including the moment she learned of her mother’s own diagnosis within the same year, and her attempts to hide her diagnosis from friends to avoid “un-normaling” everything.
