"It’s f*cking great!!! Raw, intimate, hilarious, actually inspiring.” –Jon Stewart*A RECOMMENDED READ FROM PUREWOW, BUSTLE, SHEREADS, NYLON, BOOKRIOT, GOODREADS, AND MORE*A dynamic memoir-in-essays by comedian, screenwriter, and podcaster Chelsea Devantez, detailing her tumultuous upbringing and uproarious career path into Hollywood.There are things Chelsea Devantez probably shouldn’t be telling you.
