Extremely underrated overly-personal and perfectly distant essay collection by voice of Violet Parr in the Incredibles, Sarah Vowell. She tackles everything from father-daughter relationship awkwardness to what it means to be an American. If you want to laugh and cry at the same time. Read this.

So bold, funny, poetic, melodramatic, and shameless. Itâs hilarious that this is the opening paragraph of a 500 page memoir.
I love how she confesses these anxieties and apparent failures and yet also has this passion for life and writing to still tell people her story⌠like sheâs not getting over anything!! Who says you have to!
Also pioneer of lesbian relationship autofiction did I mention that
