People like Hannah Gadsby don’t often get to tell their own stories。 Marginalized on several fronts， staying alive was never a given， much less reaching an audience to tell her stories。 Though there are many funny passages in this book， I hesitate to call it a comedic memoir。 The compounding trauma of her life is very much front and center， and readers need to be prepared for that。 It’s a worthwhile read about a very interesting person， but it is never easy。NetGalley provided me with an ARC in e People like Hannah Gadsby don’t often get to tell their own stories。 Marginalized on several fronts， staying alive was never a given， much less reaching an audience to tell her stories。 Though there are many funny passages in this book， I hesitate to call it a comedic memoir。 The compounding trauma of her life is very much front and center， and readers need to be prepared for that。 It’s a worthwhile read about a very interesting person， but it is never easy。NetGalley provided me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Wow， there are a lot of trolls in the ratings already， aren't there？This is a difficult read the way Nanette was difficult: it's extremely raw， the subject matter is at times brutal， parts are a bit too long and rambly， and Hannah Gadsby doesn't care what you think of her and that comes across。 （Plus the book comes with the added bonus of discovering that， as bad as one might have thought rural America was in the '90s if you were weird or different or god forbid queer， Tasmania was even worse！） Wow， there are a lot of trolls in the ratings already， aren't there？This is a difficult read the way Nanette was difficult: it's extremely raw， the subject matter is at times brutal， parts are a bit too long and rambly， and Hannah Gadsby doesn't care what you think of her and that comes across。 （Plus the book comes with the added bonus of discovering that， as bad as one might have thought rural America was in the '90s if you were weird or different or god forbid queer， Tasmania was even worse！） But it's also good and important in the same way: funny and insightful， voicelessness given voice。 If you like Hannah Gadsby's work， you will like this。If you don't: well， in some cases it appears to mean that you have a terminal brain disease that causes you to rate books you haven't read one star before they've even come out。 Are you okay？ You should really talk to someone。 Hannah has some good stories about how therapy helps。 。。。more
