Little Weirds

As the title suggests, this book is weird. PURE WEIRD. Which generally I like, but I thought was almost too nonsensical at points. I did listen to the audiobook (which is narrated by the author) as opposed to reading it, and I think I may have enjoyed it better if I could read it into my own voice. Jenny's narration was good, but there was so much weirdness, that I think I may have internalized it a lot better had I read it with my own eyes. Little Weirds is a bunch of essays about food, men, childhood, emotions, and everything in between. Some essays are more linear and others are very "Alice in Wonderland," bizarre and beautiful, but... weird. I love weird, but even this may have been a bit too much for me.
