Finally I finished Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson. I hate being so busy I can’t finish a roughly 300 page book in a week’s time. Especially since it is the summer & the summer months are for poolside reading or indoor activities to avoid the summer heat.
I literally found myself laughing out loud several times as I read this book. The way Jenny Lawson’s mind works is amazing and I know understand why people love her so much. I haven’t ever followed her blog and if I hadn’t seen her mentioned so frequently on Twitter I wouldn’t have known about her book.
I can’t help but think if this were my life I would want to share it with everyone. But I’m also amazed at her openness and ability to share her life the way she does.
You don’t have to be a follower or reader of Jenny Lawson’s blog to enjoy this book or to get to know her. And you most definitely will not be lost reading her book. But if you want to catch up with Jenny head over to her blog.
I’ve been trying to read a lot of indie author’s books because I understand their plight in trying to spread the word about their own novels, but I figure a first time author, even with the backing of a publishing house could still use some support and so I don’t feel too guilty straying off the indie author path with this read. It was a good effort and a lot of fun, way to go Jenny Lawson!
Have you read this book yet? What did you think?
I’m just excited that I can now say I’ve read one of the books on my summer reading list. I am going to veer off a little bit for the next book I read because I had a friend loan me a book on the Kindle and I don’t have much time to get it read. But I will quickly return to the list I laid out and get those books read!
