Jess Gutierrez has a one-of-a-kind talent for showing how hilarious and absurd life can be--and, lucky reader, she is ready to share her escapades with the rest of us. I couldn't put this book down.
--W. Kamau Bell, comedian and author of The Awkward Thoughts of W. Kamau Bell Like Gutierrez, I'm a millennial making things up as I go along, and as this book hilariously shows, our way is much more fun.

--Sona Movsesian, New York Times bestselling author of The World's Worst Assistant A frank, raucous, and bawdy collection of essays about coming of age through the oddest jobs, misadventures in queer love, and endearing parenting fails
This is a perfect book for a very imperfect generation. Millennials were the kids who wore slap bracelets and jeans so low rise they could see one another's colons, and they are now adults wondering, Is everyone else as messed up as I am? In her book, Jess shares relatable tales of a woman who feels like a dumpster fire even with a seemingly ideal set up with a fire-captain wife, three kids, and a mortgage. Highlights include roller-derby catastrophes, a disastrous first night on the job at a lesbian bar, narrow escapes from wild animals, and fond memories of sending printed thirst-trap photos via mail to the lover in Australia she met on the early Internet. Readers will soon cheerfully discover that Jess's voice is infectious, her stories are off-the-wall, and her references are deeply and delightfully millennial.
