Reviews
[Loh's] frank, self-deprecating wit is built on a foundation of acute observation of the ridiculous hypocrisies and foibles that give everyday life its texture., Loh's comic appraisal of life at middle age also offers an acerbic reckoning of how the burdens of parenting and housekeeping continue to fall most heavily on women., [Sandra Tsing] Loh's tone is chatty and self-deprecating--like having a glass of wine or a long phone call with your favorite witty, goofy friend., If humor will save us from these times--and if not, nothing will--Sandra Tsing Loh should be president. Or, better, queen. I devoured this perceptive, of-the-moment book, about midlife love, work, motherhood, peer pressure, and more, with tears of hilarity running down my face. Sandra Tsing Loh could write an oven manual, and I'd laugh. I think she might be the funniest writer writing today., Loh's voice is laugh-out-loud hilarious, and her fun house perspective on the foibles of middle age are intelligent and effervescent. Fans of her previous memoir and her NPR program The Loh Down on Science will delight in this outing., How lucky we are. Sandra Tsing Loh's hilarious, snarky, insightful, and compassionate inner monologue could have stayed inside her head. But she wrote it all down, and that makes us the fortunate ones. I laughed from the beginning to the end. You will too. If you don't there's something seriously wrong with you.--Julia Sweeney, comedian This wildly funny book proves that the more of life's indignities that are heaped on Sandra Tsing Loh, the more we will thrill to her brilliant wit and rock-solid resilience. I laughed about seventy times, welled up twice, and cried at the end. Spectacular.--Henry Alford, author of Would It Kill You to Stop Doing That? If humor will save us from these times--and if not, nothing will--Sandra Tsing Loh should be president. Or, better, queen. I devoured this perceptive, of-the-moment book about midlife love, work, motherhood, peer pressure, and more, with tears of hilarity running down my face. Sandra Tsing Loh could write an oven manual, and I'd laugh. I think she might be the funniest writer writing today.--Cathi Hanauer, editor of The Bitch in the House The Madwoman and the Roomba is so funny it woke up my husband. He couldn't fall back to sleep with all the cackling, so he told me to read it aloud, and then we were both laughing. It's a year in the life of a very particular family: Mom wants to write The Angry Divorced Mother's Cookbook ; her live-in boyfriend is more interested in the New York Times ' barbecue recipes than in finding a full-time job; her brother strips to his underwear to give their father's eulogy...In other words, they're just like the rest of us: trying to get by without killing each other. Do you like laughing? Do you like reading? Buy this book!--Caitlin Flanagan, Pulitzer Prize winner and author of Girl Land, The Madwoman and the Roomba is so funny it woke up my husband. He couldn't fall back to sleep with all the cackling, so he told me to read it aloud, and then we were both laughing. It's a year in the life of a very particular family: Mom wants to write The Angry Divorced Mother's Cookbook; her live-in boyfriend is more interested in the New York Times' barbecue recipes than in finding a full-time job; her brother strips to his underwear to give their father's eulogy.... In other words, they're just like the rest of us: trying to get by without killing each other. Do you like laughing? Do you like reading? Buy this book!, Hilarious.... [Loh's] warm, chatty, stream-of-consciousness style will attract book clubs as well as those looking for reassurance that they, too, are doing OK despite unsuccessful stabs at homemaking and dealing with hot flashes., This wildly funny book proves that the more of life's indignities that are heaped on Sandra Tsing Loh, the more we will thrill to her brilliant wit and rock-solid resilience. I laughed about seventy times, welled up twice, and cried at the end. Spectacular.
