“The Funniest Memoir You’ll Ever Read”* from one of the “Funniest People on Twitter”**

“Will make you love her even more than you probably already do. . . . Truly hilarious, with a wonderful sense of sarcasm, intelligence and a healthy dose of irony mixed in. . . . I couldn’t put this book down―you won’t be able to, either.” ―HelloGiggles.com

From her beginnings as a wunderkind producer of pirated stage productions for six-year-olds, through her spirited adventures watching self-gratifying monkeys, throwing up on Chinese-food delivery men, and stalking Leonardo DiCaprio, here are the goofy highs and horrifying lows of life as Kelly Oxford.

“Terribly funny, and often on par with the work of essayists she herself admires, such as Jonathan Ames, Sloane Crosley and David Sedaris.” ―National Post

“One of the funniest voices ever to hit the Internet uses her trademark blend of biting wit and self-deprecation to find hilarity in everyday life.” ―NPR

“I read this. It isn’t as good as The Wizard of Oz.” ―Beatrix, age five, can’t read

Capable of willing her eyesight to be 20/20

Totally an expert on strep throat

Incapable of making Leonardo DiCaprio her boyfriend

A writer

A certified therapy assistant who heals with Metallica mixtapes

A terrible liar
