Trade Review
"[Petri is] a fresh and prolific voice, someone who [is] able to make the painful reality of our current sociopolitical dumpster fire not just very, very funny, but stingingly poignant." -- Julie Klam - The Washington Post
"We all have that one friend who has the rare ability to make us laugh... even under the direst of circumstances. A friend whose dry wit, touching on everything from electoral politics to women’s equality, is more than just banter: It also punctuates intellectual points and helps frame opinions. That’s what it feels like to read Alexandra Petri's new book.
" -- Tiffany D. Cross - The New York Times Book Review
