Book Review of We Thought You Would Be Prettier : True Tales of the Dorkiest Girl Alive

We Thought You Would Be Prettier : True Tales of the Dorkiest Girl Alive
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


Though this isn't Laurie Notaro's funniest book, it is hysterically funny. There are plenty of laugh out-loud moments. Her wit is amazing. Notaro writes essays about herself, her family and the absurdities in her life that teach us to embrace the idiot girl in all of us. Anything about her mom, is fall-down funny.
