In the spirit of Mindy Kaling, Kelly Oxford, and Sarah Silverman, a compulsively readable and outrageously funny memoir of growing up as a fish out of water, finding your voice, and embracing your inner crazy-person, from popular actress, writer, and comedian Bonnie McFarlane.

It required Bonnie McFarlane lots of time, effort, and tequila to access where she is today. Before she starred on Last Comic Standing up and directed her own films, she was an inappropriately loud tomboy growing through to about You’re MUCH BETTER THAN Me: A Memoir her parents’ plantation in Cold Lake, Canada, wetting her pants during standardized checks and killing chickens. Desperate to find “her people”-like-minded souls who wouldn’t judge her because she was honest, ruthless, and okay, sometimes actually rude-Bonnie considered humor. In her explosively funny and no-holds-barred memoir, Bonnie tells it like it is certainly, and lays bare all of her intelligent (and her not-so-smart) decisions along her way to locating her friends and her comedic voice.

From fistfights in elementary college to using motorcycles to the CELEBRATED Comic Strip, to Late Night with David Letterman, and through to her infamous “c” term bit on Last Comic Standing, You’re MUCH BETTER THAN Me is her funny and outrageous trip through the good, bad, and ugly of her life in comedy. McFarlane doesn’t continue to keep her mouth area shut when she should, but at least she makes people have a good laugh. And that is all that matters, right?
