Whether Samantha Irby is talking about how her difficult childhood has led to a problem in making “adult” budgets explaining why she should be the new Bachelorette (she's '35-ish, but could easily pass for 60-something') detailing a disastrous pilgrimage-slash-romantic-vacation to Nashville to scatter her estranged father's ashes sharing awkward sexual encounters or dispensing advice on how to navigate friendships with former drinking buddies who are now suburban moms (hang in there for the Costco loot!) she’s as deft at poking fun at the ghosts of her past self as she is at capturing powerful emotional truths. We Are Never Meeting in Real Life.: Essays by Irby, Samantha available in Trade Paperback on, also read synopsis and reviews.

'A sidesplitting polemicist for the most awful situations.”-The New York Times In her collection of essays We Are Never Meeting in Real Life, Samantha Irby has done the impossible. This essay collection from the “bitches gotta eat” blogger, writer on Hulu’s Shrill and HBO's And Just Like That, and “one of our country’s most fierce and foulmouthed authors” (Amber Tamblyn, Vulture) is sure to make you alternately cackle with glee and cry real tears.
