From the New York Times–bestselling author of Bless Your Heart, Tramp!, hilarious observations that will resonate with women, mothers, and girlfriends.
In her newest wickedly irreverent humor collection, Celia Rivenbark cracks up while getting her downward facing dog on, pines for a world in which every mom gets to behave like Betty Draper and wonders why everybody's so excited about the Science Fair when there aren't even any rides. In it you'll find essays on such topics as:
Menopause Spurs Thoughts of Death and TurkeyI Dreamed a Dream That My Lashes Were LongTwitter Woes: I've Got Plenty of Characters, Just No CharacterMovie To-Do List: Cook Like Julia, Adopt Really Big KidHappy 50th Birthday, Barbie! Midge Has Your Back (Stabbed)
And much more! For any woman who longs for the good old days when Jane Fonda in legwarmers was the only one who saw you exercise, You Don’t Sweat Much for a Fat Girl is comfort food in book form.
“[Rivenbark]'s as rebellious, irreverent, and comical as ever.” —Publishers Weekly

“The author stays true to her classic comic chatter, delivering many witty and clever observations.” —Kirkus Reviews
