Everything is Perfect When You're a Liar

She's a Canadian Twitter superstar. So that's a thing now I guess? “But she's been retweeted by Roger Ebert and Jimmy Kimmel! – and she's from Calgary!” It's that me-too Canadian reflex that infects us as a nation and has us uttering things like “You know Maria Hill from S.H.I.E.L.D is Canadian right?”

Despite being consciously jealous of her ability to write for a living based on having been discovered via Twitter. I still really liked the book. It's not easy writing all about yourself without it becoming all about yourself. But maybe I'm in the minority. A good chunk of readers found it narcissistic and humble-braggy - the reflections of a clearly attractive, privileged white girl.

C'mon - this is someone who's been given a book deal based on 140 character observations. You'd think the resurrected ghost of Dorthy Parker dropped this book the way it's being savaged. It was fun. But then I'm a fan of mind-reading monkeys, elbow semen, 6-year old stagings of Star Wars, underage car puking and bad judgement meeting good luck.
