Podcaster Nora McInerny's collection of essays will have listeners nodding and chuckling in recognition as she observes life in the Internet Age. McInerny recounts pivotal moments in her life, both poignant and cringe-worthy.

Through it all she delivers a self-deprecating tone and her signature wit. She takes a deeper look at the pleasures and perils of online life, questioning our struggles with authenticity and performance on social networks. McInerny's narration complements her poignant observations on her life as a recovering overachiever and offers both laughs and wisdom. S.E.G.
