Anger management classes are a funny thing really. But we suppose you can’t argue with a "Restraining Order" – whatever that is. One thing we did learn however, apart from how to get high off your own toenail clippings, is that keeping your expectations as low as possible can be the key to happiness and fulfilment.
That’s why whenever we have to review a book, the first thing we turn to for some inspiration is Amazon reviews, and sort that bad-boy out by showing lowest reviews first.**Here’s a tip for you, budding authors. If the worst review you can muster up goes something like, "Not quite as charming as I’d hoped" (I’m looking at you, jqin out of Brooklyn), you’re in pretty good shape.
So it goes with Miranda July, and her debut collection of short stories, NO ONE BELONGS HERE MORE THAN YOU. Featuring 16 short stories that will make you think twice before taking that baseball bat out of the boot. What we mean is, they are very good and will make you feel warm inside.
Did we mention she is totally smoking hot? Buy this book. It comes in yellow and magenta.
