Publisher Description

The #1 New York Times bestselling (mostly true) memoir from the hilarious author of Furiously Happy.

“Gaspingly funny and wonderfully inappropriate.”—O, The Oprah Magazine


When Jenny Lawson was little, all she ever wanted was to fit in. That dream was cut short by her fantastically unbalanced father and a morbidly eccentric childhood. It did, however, open up an opportunity for Lawson to find the humor in the strange shame-spiral that is her life, and we are all the better for it.

In the irreverent Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, Lawson’s long-suffering husband and sweet daughter help her uncover the surprising discovery that the most terribly human moments—the ones we want to pretend never happened—are the very same moments that make us the people we are today. For every intellectual misfit who thought they were the only ones to think the things that Lawson dares to say out loud, this is a poignant and hysterical look at the dark, disturbing, yet wonderful moments of our lives.

Let's Pretend this Never Happened

I read this book during a cross country flight. I suspect my seat neighbour may have suspected I was suffering frequent seizures as I was trying to hold in the laughter and was shaking like a leaf and occasionally emitting sqeaky noises as laughter escaped. I was also crying from laughter and occasionally from genuine sadness. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to laughs so hard they can no longer talk.

Great read!

Pretty hilarious book! Jenny Lawson has the great ability to see her life experiences in a positive and funny way, whether they had been horrifying or not. Very entertaining :)
