i had no idea who ziwe was before i read this, but this book made me want to watch her videos!! she was so funny and real. she approached very serious topics like racism and cancel culture in such a funny and interesting way. her entire collection felt like a breath of fresh air. she wasn’t trying to convince anyone of anything. it was like i was just chatting with a best friend. honestly i loved everything about this. i completely forgot that i was even reading an essay collection. i laughed so much, and she wasn’t even trying to be funny. she was just naturally funny and yet perceptive.

put this on your tbr asap. you won’t regret it. this was the first easiest 5 ⭐️ i’ve ever given. the next book she writes, i’m preordering it.
