For lovers of Sloane Crosley and Samantha Irby, this hilarious and raw essay collection paints a recognizable and relatable portrait of life in the early aughts.
Former Senior Editor for Gothamist Rebecca Fishbein's adult life has been a dramatic reflection of New York media itself-constantly evolving in unexpected ways and seemingly always on the edge of disaster. In short, Rebecca has seen it all-from 3 bedbug infestations, to being fired, to being yelled at while working at American Apparel, to losing all her stuff in a freak fire, to being bullied online by angry Taylor Swift fans.

Readers will recognize the world they themselves see-a disastrous president and a scary socioeconomic landscape-in Becca's writing and find comfort in her humor and a snarky but incisive friend in her writing.
