Helpful Score: 13
I liked this book well enough. I got a little tired of the author trying too hard to be funny, with the constant quippy footnotes and all that jazz. It was funny, just overdone. For instance, you simply don't wear heels on a farm. Parts of it just felt untrue and reaching too hard. Kind of like her or her editor said "ya know, that's just not funny enough, let's throw in some chicken poop and THEN it will kill".
It's a fast read and it's great for light reading in bed when you've had a really long day and just need to escape for a while. And yes, parts are definitely laugh out loud. It was just missing something for me. I'm not even sure what exactly, some honesty or heartfelt-ness. Something.
Give it a read, it's funny, just don't go in expecting some huge thing of the city girl turned chicken poop lady ;)
