What in the World?!: A Southern Woman's Guide to Laughing at Life's Unexpected Curveballs and Beautiful Blessings
What in the World?!: A Southern Woman's Guide to Laughing at Life's Unexpected Curveballs and Beautiful Blessings | Leanne Morgan
4 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
The "Mrs. Maisel of Appalachia" packs a hilarious punch with real talk about what it's like to be a woman today--from rebelling against the latest diet trends to dealing with perimenopausal mean girls and attending rock concerts in middle age. For a long time, no one pulling the strings in the comedy world thought that a woman over fifty from rural Tennessee could make it in the industry. But Leanne Morgan has defied the odds, reaching millions with her musings on hormones, low-rise britches, Weight Watchers, and her opposites-attract relationship with her husband, Chuck. In her charming southern accent, Morgan brings readers inside her quest to find her voice after spending many years trying to figure out what that meant. Along the way, we learn how she grew up as a butcher's daughter, landed a husband with health insurance, honed her stand-up technique selling jewelry at house parties, embraced the glories of aging, and surrendered to the comfort of wearing big flesh-toned panties. Equal parts warm and hilarious, this book is a must-read by one of comedy's rising stars--reminding you that every time life leaves you asking "What in the world?!," something good is bound to come out of it someday.

Leanne Morgan is hilarious. I started following her during the pandemic. I ran into her at the beach a couple years ago. She‘s just as fun and down to earth as she seems. This book is her. 100%

This was a lot of fun. Definitely laughed out loud in places and enjoyed getting to learn about her journey to where she is now and her side tours and obstacles along the way. She is just as open and charming in this book as she is in person and onstage. If you are a fan or a woman of a similar age, I think you‘ll get a lot out of this book. GenX strong women for the win! Releases 9/24! #netgalleygroup @AllDebooks

Just finished the advanced copy of Leanne Morgan‘s book, WHAT IN THE WORLD?! She is just so genuine and funny. She‘s also “clean” funny, which kept her out of certain comedy clubs during her career, but I‘m glad that she stayed true to herself and God has blessed her because of it. In this book she talks about her faith and how things didn‘t work out early in her career but social media helped her blow up at just the right time

Velvetfur I haven't heard of her, but I'll check her out thanks to your review! 😁 7mo

I‘ve been a bit quiet and haven‘t had a chance to read much this past week as it has been conference week. I was blessed to meet some amazing authors and will be buzzing for awhile. I‘ll share ove the next few days but here is the first one-the amazing Leanne Morgan, whose first book will release in September. She was so kind, authentic, and funny. So special to meet her!
