LET'S PRETEND THIS NEVER HAPPENED (Jenny Lawson) - August 7/12

I was really enjoying this at first, since Lawson employs a very brisk pace and peppers her stories with laugh-out-loud funny tidbits. But as the book progresses, it does become harder and harder to ignore the feeling that Lawson is rambling for the sake of rambling (and padding). Her quirkiness inevitably progresses from endearing to obnoxious and it's impossible not to wish that she'd just tone it down a bit (ie nobody is this off-kilter all the time!) So yeah, this might've been okay in short, blog-sized bursts, but as a book it's just too much. ** out of ****
