The author's life is told through funny little vignettes on friends she's had and men she's dated. Quick fun read.

Not chick-lit. There's no happy ending. It's all really darkly comic. Humorous and poignant. Strange. Weird. Very entertaining. Very smart.

I've seen this book compared to Bridget Jones, but I think Adrian Mole would be a closer fit. Interesting premise of an autobiography in tiny, chronological essays on the people Smith has encountered over 30-odd years. You can't expect to sit down and "read" this one as a regular book; best picked up and put down every few entries.
