I just love Jen Lancaster’s sense of humor. I think she could be the Erma Bombeck of this century. I can see all of you searching Google for who Erma Bombeck is, trust me, she was the first one to take every day life and see the absurd before any of these new chick literatists. I think Jen was my gateway drug to reality television. I never watched anything like reality tv before — well, ok, so I watched Survivor. This one will be released as a paper back in May/
Description
In Jen’s corner is a crack team of experts, including Page Six socialites, gourmet chefs, an opera aficionado, and a master sommelier. She may discover that well-regarded, high-priced stinky cheese tastes exactly as bad as it smells, and that her love for Kraft American Singles is forever. But one thing’s for certain: Eliza Doolittle’s got nothing on Jen Lancaster-and failure is an option.

Will have to keep an eye out for this pb. I read Bitter is the New Black and agree, she’s a very current voice. I thought I read somewhere that she was trying her hand at fiction this year?
I read My Fair Lazy and loved it! Jen Lancaster is great (and can you believe I know who Erma Bombeck is? My mom had all her books and I read them when I was a kid… loved her humor about parenting!).
Great review!
