Amy Schumer's stand-up comedy is raunchy and belly-laugh inducing. Fans will enjoy this memoir about her journey as a female comic. Her delivery makes you feel like you’re in a room with her while she’s laughing at her foibles. Her experience as a comic translates into many strengths as an audiobook narrator. Her pace is rapid—so quick, in fact, that you may miss a joke now and then. The humor is off-color and includes honest discussion about sexuality as well as a liberal sprinkling of swearing. Headphones may be helpful in certain listening situations—while at the gym, for example. On the whole, this is a delightful listen with one of comedy's most honest, funniest voices.
