You’ll Grow Out of It by Jessi Klein

I so enjoyed this–but I think that’s largely because I like her. We have so much in common (Vassar; hating the word “horny,” liking big, bearded, Jewish-seeming men, being cheered up by corgis)–but conveying all that in a coherent book is no small feat. That she does it thematically rather than chronologically adds to the balancing act. And throw in a killed insight about women (poodles vs. wolves) and this is exactly the light-but-not-too-light feminist entertainment I want.
