Summary:
In the spirit of Mindy Kaling, Kelly Oxford, and Sarah Silverman, a compulsively readable and outrageously funny memoir of growing up as a fish out of water, finding your voice, and embracing your inner crazy-person, from popular actress, writer, and comedian Bonnie McFarlane.
It had taken Bonnie McFarlane lots of time, work, and tequila to get to where she actually is today. Before she starred on Last Comic Standing and directed her own movies, she was an inappropriately loud tomboy growing up on about You’re Better Than Me: A Memoir her parents’ farm in Cold Lake, Canada, wetting her slacks during standardized assessments and killing chickens. Desperate to discover “her people”-like-minded souls who wouldn’t judge her because she was honest, ruthless, and alright, sometimes really rude-Bonnie turned to comedy. In her explosively funny and no-holds-barred memoir, Bonnie tells it like it is usually, and lays uncovered all of her sensible (and her not-so-smart) decisions along her method to finding her close friends and her comedic voice.
From fistfights in elementary school to driving motorcycles to the World Famous Comic Strip, to NIGHT TIME with David Letterman, and through to her infamous “c” word bit on Last Comic Standing, You’re MUCH BETTER THAN Me is her funny and outrageous trip through the good, bad, and unattractive of her existence in comedy. McFarlane doesn’t continue to keep her mouth shut when she should, but at least she makes people giggle. And that is all that matters, right?
