Unabrow: Misadventures of a Late Bloomer | Una LaMarche
7 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
In between highbrow and lowbrow, theres Unabrow. "Take the cast of Bridesmaids, add a dash of pre-pubescent Eugene Levy, and you have the humor stylings of Una LaMarche."-- Ann Imig, founder of Listen to Your Mother As a girl, Una LaMarche was as smart as she was awkward. She was blessed with a precocious intellect, a love of all things pop culture, and eyebrows bushier than Frida Kahlos. Adversity made her stronger...and funnier. In Unabrow, Una shares the cringe-inducing lessons shes learned from a life as a late bloomer, including the seven deadly sins of DIY bangs, how not to make your own jorts, and how to handle pregnancy, plucking, and the rites of passage during which your own body is your worst frenemy. For readers who loved Lets Pretend This Never Happened and for fans of Mindy Kaling, Tina Fey, and Amy Schumer, Unabrow is the book June Cleaver would have written if she spent more time drinking and less time vacuuming. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Mehso-so

I think this book just confirmed what I generally already knew: I'm not really a memoir person. Unabrow was well-written and funny, but it was a short book and it took me over a week to finish it, mainly because it has no tension whatsoever. It's just a bunch of funny anecdotes. I like stories; I like tension; I like stakes. This isn't any of these things. Still, if you like funny memoirs maybe it will be your thing. 5/10 ⭐️

New read is a rare foray into nonfiction! I think I fully picked this up for the cover, and so far it's living up to my expectations 😄

How can you not love this book??? I mean...look at that face on the cover...I rest my case. I had never heard of Una Lamarche before but she is predictably (going by the cover photo) hilarious and willing to make fun of herself for our benefit. I chortled all the way through. As delightful as that epic Unibrow.

No seriously; my TBR bookcase has expanded and started to swallow my floor. How on earth do I choose what to read next??

stacybmartin Make a TBR jar with slips of all the titles and randomly draw one out? 📚🤓📚 8y
