It Looked Different On The Model: Epic Tales Of Impending Shame And Infamy (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Reading Laurie Notaro never fails to make me smile, and giggle, and sometimes laugh out loud. While some "stories" are better than others, overall I liked this collection. My favorite in this one was the tale about her mother and all the material she forwards and takes for truth because she saw it on the internet. Hilarious stuff! Great for a quick read when you don't have time for a book requiring a thought process. Laurie Notaro is a gift to all our feminine insecurities. She gets to the heart of the matter, slices it to pieces and exposes it with raw humor. The next time I try on clothes at the boutique, I'm not going to leave feeling defeated because I left my best body years ago. I'm going to giggle, remembering Laurie's recollection of her dressing room experience. I convulsed with laughter six pages in. Just a word of warning, pee before reading. That's how funny she is!
