Furiously Happy: A Funny Book about Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson

3.0

This was definitely an interesting read. I learned some fun facts while reading this book, like did you know kangaroos have three vaginas? I didn't. Apparently a few (or all) marsupials do, thus allowing them to be essentially pregnant all the time. One of my favorite chapters was the one about cats near the end of the book. I always like a person who values these majestic, underrated creatures. They are great listeners, like Jenny points out and they do communicate with their eyes. They're pretty much amazing. All in all, I liked the scattered writing style of this book. It helped me realize how it must be to live with mental illness. It was nice to have the added quirky humor even while dealing with a serious/sensitive subject.
