I'm Kind Of A Big Deal: And Other Delusions Of Adequacy (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
A snarky collection of stories to create a great memoirish read. Some of the stories were down right hilarious - I may have laughed out loud, but there were a few that fell below the line. A great book to read by the beach or in spurts over the summer.My absolute favorite was the story of her getting a tattoo or at least trying. Her thoughts and reactions would be exactly like mine. I couldn't get a tattoo if you paid me for two reasons: I couldn't make a decision on what I would want or where I would want it, so it's a no go for me.If you are a reader of Jen Lancaster - this would be a great one to add to your collection. For women who love the snarky humor, I would add this to your summer reading list. A quick and short review, but definitely a book to pick up. I was lucky enough to read an advanced copy of this hilarious collection of essays, and while it absolutely delivers what I've come to expect from Stefanie - irreverent, perceptive observation and often milk-through-the-nose hysterics - I was delighted to discover a deeper connection to the author through her touching stories about her father and the struggles she faced with some of her own personal demons. Comunicated with her always wry, always spot-on rapier wit, the author covers this new ground as a writer with a deft, capable hand. A fun, totally satisfying read.

Interesting stories...I don't quite understand some of it though...

So funny!!! Earlier chapters are better than the later ones though.

Eh. Some amusing stories, but it doesn't hang together very well.
