Get Access Its Not Me, Its You Originated By Stefanie Wilder-Taylor Accessible Through Document

first two books were brilliantly hilarious, I related to her funny experiences with new motherhood and the way she told her stories made me peeinmypants laugh.
In this book, instead of sticking with the topic of motherhood, it's a hodgepodge of recollections of growing up.
Unfortuately, I couldn't relate to her stories of getting kicked out of the house by her mother atsmoking crack hanging out at titty bars and stripclubs and begging her boyfriend to marry her.
Quite disappointing. Author Stefanie WilderTaylor writes her memoir like I would like to write one: Filled with sarcasm, humor and obscenities.


Im just too Minnesota Nice to pull it off courageously, And not nearly as funny,

But if youre a memoir fan looking for a humor fix, “Its Not Me, Its You: Subjective Recollections From a Terminally Optimistic, Chronically Sarcastic and Occasionally Inebriated Woman” is your book.


It is not as packed with laughoutloud humorous metaphors as Jen Lancasters “Bitter Is the New Black: Confessions of a Condescending, Egomaniacal, SelfCentered Smartass, Or, Why You Should Never Carry A Prada Bag to the Unemployment Office” a book I thoroughly enjoyed by the way, but WilderTaylors writing reminded me a bit of Lancasters and its got enough funny to preoccupy me while I spent hours seemed like it anyway on the stepmill at the gym.


WilderTaylors chapters are a little bit disconnected in the beginning, but her storytelling gets better as the book progresses and I found myself cheering for her by the end.

I've read WilderTaylor's firstbooks Sippy Cups are Not for Chardonnay and Naptime is the New Happy Hour.
I loved the first one and felt like the second was trying to hard to be as good as the first one.
I was a little nervous that this book would be a repeat of the second book, It definitely wasn't. In this book she delves into her abandonment issues, unhappy childhood, eating disorder and other pretty serious things and all with a pretty amazing ability to laugh at herself.
This book isn't laugh out loud funny with every page but it is humorous and to me came off as honest.
It was a fast read and I'm definitely going to read her next book, Fairly amusing although I couldn't relate to most of the circumstances, Many people didn't like the ending as it was a little openended, but I felt like her whole point was that life is all about how you perceive it and it never hurts to have a "rock" in your life the word she uses for her husband in her acknowledgements.
The story didn't really need a neat and tidy ending because life is everevolving and rarely neat or tidy.
It left me intrigued enough to check out another book by WilderTaylor, Moving and funny, I loved this book, I will highly recommend to my friends to read as I found it easy to relate to, It Works for You if You Work It was my favorite chapter where she discusses how therapy will not work unless you give it a chance.
Unlike other memoirs I've read in the past that focus on comedy, she mixes in with the humor her emotional past that in a way that is endearing and raw.
I also enjoyed how the book get better, and the writer more likable, as the stories progress, since some books I've read before start off well and drag towards the end.
This memoir was funny, and I definitely wanted to be friends with Stefanie WilderTaylor, Her insecurities and discomforts are ones many of us can relate to, although we might handle them a little differently.


She is blunt and open about her issues, although I did want to see a little more of her struggle due to her irresponsible behavior.
For example, she needs a car so she goes on a game show to win one, then conveniently ignores the fact that she will be taxed by the IRS on said car, which leads to years of uncomfortable debt glossed over.


Regardless, a quick and funny read, Hilarious! Pros:
Written by a girl named Stefanie, Goodreads does not have her name properly listed, As someone named Stefanie I admit I picked it up at first because I adore seeing my name in print.


One chapter stories are perfect for when you're not quite prepared to concentrate, Seeing as I carried adegree fever forhours, that's about all I could handle,

Some parts were wicked funny,

Cons:

Some parts were not even close to being believable,

Making light of drug use is not funny to me,

Quite funny great narrative voice with an enviable wit, This was a superquick read, It's just essays but I grew to love the author as the book develops, This was better than her book Sippy Cups Are Not For Chardonnay, definitely interesting. sortof reminds me of Bitter Is the New Black

uThe Tough Decisions in Life/u

How do you escape when your boyfriend is kinda keeping you hostage You channel your inner Tori Spelling.

You need a car and your parents won't help you out, what do you do You win one at Hollywood Squares.



You are at a shelter because your mother kicked you out of the house, what do you do Rally up all the kids at the shelter and pass a petition for more T.
V. time.

Hilarious!

This book had me laughing out loud in the middle of the gym.
Yes, I got a few stares, I took it to the beach and I was laughing so hard, my friends were thoroughly amused,

This book, written by Stefanie WilderTaylor, is a collection of short essays or vignettes that chronicle certain events in her life such as: moving to L.
A. , being dropped off at a shelter by her mother, meeting her future husband online, and throwing a tantrum because her boyfriend won't marry her.
They are not told in any specific order and the disjointed arrangement of the chapters fits the book perfectly.
This book is extremely subjective, uniquely honest, and hugely entertaining, I like this book so much, I want to hang out with the author,

The book deals with the ups and downs of her life in a very funny way.
I would, at times, realize that what was happening was not a funny thing being kicked out of her house, her numerous relationships, her selfdestructive ways, eating disorders, and estranged relationship with her father but she has a way with words that I could not stop laughing.
The last chapter took a more serious tone, amidst all the funny references, that seemed to project the author's own transformation into a semiresponsible adult.


This was a fast read and extremely enjoyable, I can't wait for another of her books, there are too many stages of her life that are missing from this one.


This is a book to get,
This felt less like a memoir and more like a collection of vignettes, It does have funny moments, and it is definitely lighthearted and a little surprising and crazy, I started reading it when I had kind of reached my limit for the time being with a different, very serious book I'm reading, and it definitely provided the levity I was seeking.
So I accepted it for what it was, and honestly I liked it for doing what I needed it to do.
But I had problems with some of the viewpoints, and I noticed several instances of bad editing, including the omission of the word "cake" in this sentence on page: "if my memory serves me correctly, someone may have baked him a congratulationsonkickingStefanie'sass during the time between our scores being announced and our arrival backstage.
