Let's Pretend this Never Happened

This month our book club selected Jenny Lawson's "Let's Pretend this Never Happened".  I really don't know much about the book prior to reading it except that it was a memoir of Jenny's eccentric life.  After the first chapter, I was hooked.

Jenny has a way of writing where she makes you feel like you were right there during the event.  Not only that, but she has a hilarious way of explaining it all, including her inner monologue.  As someone who also has a high sense of anxiety, it was almost comforting that she thinks the same as I do.  I was able to feel connected with her and actually quite understood many of her situations.

In more that one chapter I found myself laughing so hard that I had tears running down my eyes.  One afternoon I even had to leave LeAnn Chin's because I was shaking so hard trying to stifle my giggles.

I would definitely, and have already, recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, fast read.
