I didn't like this as much as broken because broken made me laugh out loud in my nail teex face which was incredibly embarrassing but broken was like funny from start to finish five stars whereas I was not laughing with this one until way later in the game so not my favorite from Jenny Lawson that I've read so far but a solid book once you get past her childhood years and the you know Taxidermy squirrels
Let's Pretend This Never Happened (2013)
When Jenny Lawson was little, all she ever wanted was to fit in. That dream was cut short by her fantastically unbalanced father and a morbidly eccentric childhood. It did, however, open up an opportunity for Lawson to find the humor in the strange shame-spiral that is her life, and we are all the better for it. In the irreverent Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson’s long-suffering husband and sweet daughter help her uncover the surprising discovery that the most terribly human moments—the ones we want to pretend never happened—are the very same moments that make us the people we are today. For every intellectual misfit who thought they were the only ones to think the things that Lawson dares to say out loud, this is a poignant and hysterical look at the dark, disturbing, yet wonderful moments of our lives.
I highly recommend listening to those as audiobooks because the author is narrating them and she's just really funny
