Critics Review
“Kate Spencer is the BFF I wish I had when my mother died. I had dear friends, mind you. Just not the kind who’d also been rocked by grief and could make me laugh-until-I-cried about it. Well done!”–Allison Gilbert, author of Passed and Present: Keeping Memories of Loved Ones Alive“Improbably–and irresistibly–funny”–People “Although her memoir is a raw and moving account of a daughter’s loss, Spencer’s comedic wit prevails.”–Booklist “Heartbreaking and hilarious.”–BUST.com“The most tragic things are also the ones we most need to laugh about. Thankfully Kate Spencer is here to lead us to those laughs with grace and charm.”–Chris Gethard, author of A Bad Idea I’m About to Do “This book destroyed me. But not in a ‘It made me so depressed!’ kind of way. It destroyed me because it was just so deeply relatable. It made me remember my own mother, and made me wish I had met Kate’s. I spent the entire book not only laughing and crying, but just so pissed Kate’s mom couldn’t read it herself. She would be so proud. It’s incredible.”–Chris Kelly“This is the perfect ‘how to’ book for the unimaginable, and Kate is the dearest friend you could want beside you the whole way. She will become your new cheerleader.”–Casey Wilson
