Sometimes you read a celebrity's memoir and you realize that they are not as cool as you once thought they were. This is not the case with Rachel Bloom's soon-to-be-published book, I Want To Be Where the Normal People Are. In fact, as much as I loved Rachel BEFORE reading this one, I think I love her even more after (if that is even possible). Bloom's wildly vulgar humor is in full force in each chapter of this book and she is not afraid to get personal (REALLY PERSONAL). If you are a Crazy Ex-Girlfriend fan, you will love this book. If you aren't a Crazy Ex-Girlfriend fan, go watch the series NOW because obviously, you haven't seen it yet (you can't have watched the series and not have become a fan). My favorite chapter from this memoir is the one where she talks about all the things she couldn't feature on the show because of network restrictions (and how she got around some of those restrictions). From a literary perspective, this is a solid memoir and if you are as big of a fan of Rachel Bloom as I am, it is imperative that you add this one to your reading list!
