How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay by Jenny Lawson

I've enjoyed Lawson's books since the first one came out and started reading her blog soon after. She lays bare a lot of her life but this book is a little different. Instead of essays, thes are more like fleeting thoughts. Some are a little sad but most are philosophical and many feel like a warm hug of understanding. 

If you've ever thought that no one in the world can understand you, I think you will find at least one essay that speaks to you. But probably more.

Some of the essays were a little TOO short (which sounds weird), but I could only read this book as chunks at a time.
