You're Never Weird on the Internet (Almost)
by Felicia Day
funny
inspiring
medium-paced
I don’t usually rate biographies this high, but this was delightful.
I’m a big fan of Felicia Day, and I remember getting the physical copy of this book but waiting to read it after I had watched The Guild and a few other projects she was in (I was already very familiar with Dr. Horribles and her time on Supernatural).
I’m both happy and sad that I waited so long to read this. Sad that it took me so long but happy in that I don’t think I would have gotten the amazing amount of advice I did now had I read it 8 years ago when I first got the book. I’m older and have gone through so much now that I’m the age Felicia was when she wrote the book.
I didn’t realize how much I had in common with Felicia - the anxiety, the pressure for perfection, the pressure to keep topping yourself, the hyper focus on negative feedback, etc. It was a relief to read these feelings and see them in someone as amazing as Felicia. Heck - I even took her advice to say no more and canceled something for my mental health.
I think anyone can get something out of this book. If you feel weird and like you don’t belong anywhere, you’ll get something out of this book. Whether you know of Felicia Day or not, you can enjoy this book. But if you know of her work, you might have more enjoyment.
It’s littered with her humor and it was so endearing to listen to her read it. I really felt like i was just listening to a friend.
