Freaking awful. Notaro isn't funny in the slightest way. My Dad, one of my uncles, at least one, possibly two of my sisters AND myself and my five year old are far more funny that this tacky author.
Trying to hard is what ran through my mind for the entire time I was read this. That wasn't long of course because I was so disgusted I stopped around page 66. Ugh. I can't believe people find this woman funny.
Humor should be EFFORTLESS people - EFFORTLESS. If you have to TRY to achieve humor it DOESN'T WORK.
I will never, in my life, read anything else by this woman.
