This memoir was funny, if a bit disjointed (but memoirs aren't really known for their linear movements, I suppose). The best part is still the bit that made me pick it up in the first place - Mindy's opinion on "why women aren't funny":

"I just felt that by commenting on that in any real way, it would be tacit approval of it as a legitimate debate, which it isn’t. It would be the same as addressing the issue of “Should dogs and cats be able to care for our children? They’re in the house anyway.” I try not to make it a habit to seriously discuss nonsensical hot-button issues."

I do hope the search for Ellie in this series doesn't devolve into the search for Sophia in the new Walking Dead season. I don't like how her kidnapping/Tom's disappearance went down. Very anti-climactic. The very end made up for that lapse a bit. I wasn't incredibly surprised, but I do enjoy the way it played out.
