Absolutely incredible memoir from a both hilarious and incredibly intelligent comedian. Youngmi Mayer has one of those life paths that is just interesting - living in multiple countries with parents of different languages and cultures - but I think she could have written a mesmerizing memoir even without this life story to guide her. She has so many stories that will have you laughing out loud, and she is able to take these stories and skillfully weave in deep societal analysis that will really make you think. So deep that I have considered listening again to take notes.

Mayer grew up in Korea, and she sprinkles a lot of Korean into this book. I really loved the audio version because of this - Korean is just a beautiful language to listen to. Mayer is also just a fun narrator, and her voice brings her stories to life.

There are so many other reviews out there that go way deeper, but I am just in awe of her skill here. I hope this is not the last I read from Youngmi Mayer!

Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan audio for an audio ARC in exchange for an honest review!
