Wow, No Thank You by Samantha Irby

Wow, No Thank You by Samantha Irby

A collection of essays/rants by comedian Samantha Irby about her adventures moving to a small town in Michigan after living the first 40 years of her life in Chicago. Some of the essays completely passed me by, like the one about making a mixed tape where I didn't know any of the songs (although I did know most of the artists, like Pearl Jam). One of the funniest essays is called We Almost Got a Fucking Dog, to which I can completely relate. Cute rabbit on the cover. Recommended for readers who enjoy the rants of David Sedaris and Randy Rainbow.

Low Hanging Fruit by Randy Rainbow

A collection of rants by comedian Randy Rainbow. Like all essay collections, some are better than others. There is an essay called "I Feel Bad About My Balls" that made me laugh until I cried. Even straight men would find it funny. Love the cover. Recommended for readers who enjoy essays and rants especially in the LGBTQ category.
