I recently finished, “Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns)” by Mindy Kaling. If you are not familiar with Mindy, she is a writer and actor. She played the character of Kelly Kapoor on “The Office” and is now the star of her own show, “The Mindy Project”. Her book is a New York Times bestseller and for good reason! This book made me laugh out loud on many occasions. It was a fun read that is often compared to Tina Fey’s “Bossypants”, though honestly, I thought this one was funnier.
I know! Can you believe I just said that?
But, I did say it and I think it is true. Kaling’s book is a story of how a weird kid obsessed with comedy made her way through the world and into the Hollywood limelight. She turns her craziness into something adorable and relatable. You totally want to hang out with this weirdo and realize that you have a lot in common.
There were a number of sections I really loved, especially, “Someone Explain One-night Stands to Me”, “Types of Women in Romantic Comedies that are Not Real.”, and “My Favorite Eleven Moments in Comedy”. I thought one of the best examples of the humor in this book was in the final Q&A section:
“Question: “Why didn’t you talk about whether women are funny or not?
I just felt that by commenting on that in any real way, it would be tacit approval of it as a legitimate debate, which it isn’t. It would be the same as addressing the issue of “Should dogs and cats be able to care for our children? They’re in the house anyway.” I try not to make it a habit to seriously discuss nonsensical hot-button issues.””
Love it. Check out this book. It was a quick read, and a lot of fun. Perfect for the summer.
