I read this in two days and laughed out loud in the sun. Would recommend.

This was such an easy listen, I didn‘t want it to end. Would love to read more like this
For a comedian, I cried more than I laughed with this one. Good book, interesting story and tribute her family.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fun audiobook of essays. I really enjoyed most of them. Made for great company while puttering around doing weekend stuff around the house.
I didn‘t know that Wilson had published a book until I saw it on Litsy, but I love Happy Endings, so it was an immediate choice for my next audiobook. I enjoyed most of her essays, but I started feeling like all her essays were really just about her mother. It‘s still a pick because she‘s very heartfelt about her mom, but I didn‘t love it as much as I wanted to. Good book on audio, kept me interested on commutes.
This was definitely an Impulse read for #TeamGameSleighers as I kept hearing great things about this memoir. I enjoyed it and recommend for sure. I also finished this one while I was doing an amazing #audiowalk in the warm sunny weather to help with my mental/physical health. I think it was almost 80 degrees.

This was great!! A pleasant surprise, since I had no idea who the author is but @Megabooks and @britt_brooke recommended the audio ( and that was enough for me)🥰Casey Wilson has that like-ability factor that Jenny Lawson possess. She‘s self deprecating, honest and extremely funny. This was a perfect listen while I prepared dinner and did household chores.
This is fun!! I‘m LOVING The Housewives essay!! I think you‘d like this audio @KarenUK 😘Thanks for putting this on my radar @Megabooks @britt_brooke
I had NO CLUE that I bought this until @britt_brooke reminded me!! I literally went to buy it and saw I already owned the audio. #HotDamnMyMind #UpNext ❣️❣️❣️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Big thank you to Meg for putting this on my radar, and for Cindy's head's up on the recent #audible sale! Y'all are just the best bookish friends! I wasn't previously familiar with Wilson, and this was an unexpected, but absolute, delight. She's sincere and funny as hell. I just want to hang out with her, to be honest. She's seems like fun and is, no doubt, an amazing conversationalist. Really solid memoir!
A sweet & funny book from a sweet & funny lady. Especially enjoyed reading about her time on Happy Endings.
Did the audiobook on this one & genuinely felt like LISTENING to her divulge and lament and rant and profess so earnestly, so candidly, added several layers to the experience. Not to mention benefiting from her fabulous comedic timing.
While her topics ranged from things totally foreign to me (the “Real Housewives of... “ TV shows) to those painfully relatable (complicated relationship with food), it was all enjoyable and very often moving.

@caseyrosewilson has been my comedy icon since moving to New York in 2015. Taking a dive into these essays gave me joy and comfort with a healthy dose of self-actualization on some things. Happy Endings has also been my go-to show any time I‘m “going through it”, so it‘s only fitting that this book would have a same effect. Thank you. Ahmazing!
Sometimes I like a B (or C) list comedian‘s essays more than an A lister‘s. Such is the case with this gem from Casey. She talks about the very relatable issues of marriage and parenting while working. And even though that‘s not me, I related to terrible first job and her funny family stories. (Not to mention her love of reality TV!) I‘ll definitely seek out more from Casey.
@britt_brooke I think you‘d enjoy this! (Probably a good #audiobook)
My foraging listen for the week. (Might be good luck bc: Reishi!). My wife loves anything Real-Housewives and apparently Casey has a podcast on them, so I got her this book and jumped in as well. She‘s funny, and has funny stories! Def recommend if you‘re into childhood tales, Hollywood, feminism, relationships, and other random funny stuff!

Didn't finish as many books this month as I often do but they were all winners. I was surprised by how much I loved The Wreckage of My Presence and Boyfriend Material, both of which I consumed via audiobook and I believe are best consumed that way. 💯
4⭐This collection was so funny (I laughed out loud multiple times), but it was also sharp and insightful, and had a lot of heart. Casey Wilson‘s stories felt honest and open, which I really appreciated when it came to her mental health and grief, and her love for her family, especially her mother, really came through. This was heartwarming, but also unexpectedly tugged at the heartstrings. Casey Wilson is a delight and this was a great read! #arc
