★★☆☆☆
Nothing funny about childhood abuse
This book was marketed as quirky and ‘wildly funny,’ but I had a hard time finding the humor in this book. The main character is socially awkward because of her extreme childhood abuse. I fail to find the humor in a person who has been forever mentally messed up because they were abused and neglected. It’s not funny. It’s terribly sad. I only finished the book because it was for book club.
