So Here's the Thing…: Notes on Growing Up, Getting Older, and Trusting Your Gut by Alyssa Mastromonaco, Lauren Oyler

5.0

I LOVE a great memoir. I try to read at least two a year. So Here’s the Thing... was actually my third of 2019, so far.⠀

I read Obama’s Dreams From My Father earlier this year when I was really missing him and Alyssa Mastromonaco’s Who Thought This Was a Good Idea the summer before when I was lying on a beach. It also made me miss Obama, but it made me LOVE her.⠀

Alyssa Mastromonaco is one of the funniest, most inspiring writers I’ve ever read. I can’t help but read some of her best lines out loud to whoever will listen to me. Her second book had the exact same effect on me. Ugh, I loved it (and her) so much.⠀
