My Drunk Kitchen: A Guide to Eating, Drinking, and Going with Your Gut by Hannah Hart

4.0

I first found Hannah Hart when she was at John and Hank Green's Evening of Awesome at Carnegie Hall. I didn't know who she was, but I wanted to find out.
I found My Drunk Kitchen and watched the archive in one long sitting. I adore her puns, her open sexuality and her zany humor. Not only do we share last names (no relation), we're both gay, we enjoy John Green and we make nerdy word jokes.
This book is like an extended YouTube video only you don't think it's gone on too long. I laughed out loud at her goofy ass descriptions and appreciated the totally staged photo shoots. There were so many great lines in this book, I had to highlight and add smileys all over it. But a couple of my faves were "Brunch is where people go to complain about problems that aren't really problems." and when cooking, remember to have adult supervision "And by 'adult' I mean someone who isn't drunk. It can be your kid sister. too. She seems pretty responsible for a sixteen-year-old. I mean, she's always reading those YA books, so she must have learned a thing or two about life."
This is not a cookbook and there are not applicable recipes. But if you want a laugh or you're a Hannah Hart fan, this is a great pick for you.
Full disclosure: I received this book as an advanced reading copy from Edelweiss.
