Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling
4.0
Loved it! I was very close to giving this a 5 star rating, but restrained myself because I know that part of why I loved this so much was because I already love Mindy and enjoyed every minute of hearing her speak about her life. Listening to her read the audiobook was a unique pleasure since I got to literally hear the jokes as she intended them.
She mentions a few times that the expected audience for this book is youngish girls, but I definitely think that the audience for this book should be much more broad. Fans of The Office, certainly, but really anyone with an interest in Hollywood, comedy or stories of people chasing after their dreams. Mindy rarely made me laugh out loud, but I was constantly smiling because she puts her own unique spin on things that is a pleasure to hear. I also really appreciated the nice blend of her conservative upbringing and her more modern Hollywood lifestyle.
