Maeve in America: Essays by a Girl from Somewhere Else by Maeve Higgins

3.0

I only was casually familiar with Maeve Higgins thanks to her appearances on "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me!" but when my friend Abby said she was reading this book I thought I could give it a try. It was decidedly decent and I must say her chapters on body image were probably my favorite. Her thoughts put into words were very relatable and lovely and painful all at the same time. But sometimes she would talk about topics and issues that I was just not as invested as much in. That being said, there were plenty of times while listening to this book that I physically LOL'ed - so you know, while the book was a little uneven for my taste - I did definitely like it.
