As
both
a
tomboy
and
a
late
bloomer,
comedian
Jessi
Klein
grew
up
feeling
more
like
an
outsider
than
a
participant
in
the
rites
of
modern
femininity.
In
YOU'LL
GROW
OUT
OF
IT,
Klein
offers-through
an
incisive
collection
of
real-life
stories-a
relentlessly
funny
yet
poignant
take
on
a
variety
of
topics
she
has
experienced
along
her
strange
journey
to
womanhood
and
beyond.
These
include
her
"transformation
from
Pippi
Longstocking-esque
tomboy
to
are-you-a-lesbian-or-what
tom
man,"
attempting
to
find
watchable
porn,
and
identifying
the
difference
between
being
called
"ma'am"
and
"miss"
("Miss
sounds
like
you
weigh
ninety-nine
pounds").
Raw,
relatable,
and
consistently
hilarious,
YOU'LL
GROW
OUT
OF
IT
is
a
one-of-a-kind
book
by
a
singular
and
irresistible
comic
voice.

Recenzii
"Jessi

a
brilliant
comedic
mind
and
this
book
is
a
perfect
reflection

It's
like
having
a
glass
of
wine
with
the
best
friend
you
wish
you
had."
—Amy
Schumer"YOU'LL GROW OUT OF IT does an amazing job making me understand what my life might be like if I were a woman. Or if I were Jessi Klein. I laughed. Lots. Not at what it's like to be a woman! That would be sexist. I laughed at the parts that you're supposed to. Which are plentiful. Because Jessi Klein is truly really funny."—Ira Glass
