Bridge Burning and Other Hobbies
Bridge Burning and Other Hobbies | Kitty Flanagan
8 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
Kitty Flanagan has been locked in an industrial freezer in Western Australia, insulted about the size of her lady parts in Singapore and borne witness to the world's most successful wife swap in suburban Sydney. It's these valuable lessons from The University of Life that have taught her so many things, including the fact that cliches like 'The University of Life' are reeeally annoying. In these funny, true stories, Kitty provides advice you didn't even know you needed. Useful tips on how not to get murdered while hitch-hiking, how to break up with someone the wrong way, and the right way, why it's important to keep your top on while waitressing, and why women between the ages of thirty-seven and forty-two should be banned from internet dating. Bridge Burning and Other Hobbies is a collection of laugh-out-loud, cautionary tales from one of Australia's favourite comedians. 'Finally, a book that doesn't tell you to stop eating sugar.' KITTY - CAKE ENTHUSIAST 'Shut your mouth Flanagan or you'll do fifteen in the freezer.' GARY - FACTORY FOREMAN 'I was hoping there'd be more about arson.' BERNIE - LOCAL FIRESTARTER

Kitty Flanagan is one of my favourite comedians. And this book lived up to my expectations. I did this as an audiobook and am thankful that I did as it was read by the author with all of her nuances.

A fantastic, laugh out loud memoir. Definitely reading more by Flanagan.

Kitty Flanagan has a unique way of looking at the world and I enjoyed this peek into her mind. I listened to the Audible version and I have to say that hearing Kitty read her own book added to the experience. I have seen her live shows and been the brunt of her jokes as I came in late (having left the tickets at home duh) and this book totally lived up to my expectations.
By the way, in the background is my new family member, Toffee. 13 weeks old.

This book is hilarious! I‘ve been listening to the audio book read by Kitty. I think it‘s probably funnier to listen rather than read it yourself. If you were made to play the recorder in primary school, this is the book for you!
