![]() ![]() Laugh out loud chapters include the tsunami response she received to a tweet documenting her funny malapropism at an airport. Yet Jenny’s writing is never maudlin, instead focusing on the reality of silver linings found in any cloud. In more self-help like chapters, she logs her foray into expensive, but corrective TMS treatments and her search and revelation of a jinxed dementia genealogy. ![]() ![]() She ponders the odd issues of her dog Dorothy Barker and bemuses her husband’s chagrin at her trying to care for wayward animals and birds that venture into their property. Along the way, she hilariously takes down the medical insurance companies she’s had to fight for financial assistance in the voice of an abused girlfriend. Her ever present mantra “I’m me, and that’s ok” courses as the through line. Jenny Lawson, author of the bestseller Furiously Happy, again mixes chapter offerings of absurdly humorous modern world takes with poignant reveals about her various afflictions including agoraphobia, RA, and depression. Broken (in the best possible way) is the perfect gift book for friends or family in the hospital or simply experiencing a difficult time. ![]()
