��I know my worth. I embrace my power. I say if I'm beautiful. I say if I'm strong. You will not determine my story. I will.��

I mostly listened my way through this on audiobook and I actually think the book worked better this way. Amy Schumer's book is filled with jokes and she sometimes even have entire conversations with herself on the pages. That may work when you actually listen to the book, but I imagine it falls flat when reading. I'm just guessing though.

I am in no way a huge Amy Schemer-fan. I have barely seen any of her shows or movies but I have been to one of her shows, which I remember as being rather funny.
I do however not have the fan-perspective. I just read the book out of curiosity, thinking of Amy as any woman in her mid-thirties wanting to share her stories.

And share, she did.

This is an extremely personal book �� Schumer is relentlessly honest and writes about the first time she realized her parents were only human, a violent relationship, her summer spent volunteering at a camp for disabled persons while also writing entire chapters in jest.

The book is constantly balancing between pure fun and very personal and political messages. It's a bit confusing, as Schumer seems to be arguing for no-judgement and free individuality one second, and then judging and making fun of people's different lifestyles the next.
