false 3936696 3 <b>A rapier-sharp, hilariously irreverent collection of true-life essays from the beloved author of <I>Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay</i>.</b><P>Stefanie Wilder-Taylor has never been one to take the conventional route. Whether financing a move to LA with only a best friend's bat mitzvah savings or accidentally freebasing cocaine, Stefanie is living proof that the unlikely can happen -- usually to her. And when it does, the best response is a potent combination of pluck, luck, humor, and frequently, alcohol.<P>In these candid essays, Stefanie recounts how a nice Jewish girl from Queens became a Hollywood producer, writer, and mother of three, with some surprising detours along the way. From disproving her mother's "cars aren't free" refrain by going on <I>Hollywood Squares</i> and winning one, to signing up for a romantic sunset cruise that turns out to be a hellish fratfest staffed by a pushy pirate-attired crew, Stefanie shares her triumphs, missteps, and the many lessons learned. She reveals why it's never a good sign when your new therapist brings out a stuffed bumblebee and a whiffle ball bat, and how to outsmart a potential stalker by channeling your inner Tori Spelling. Through the good, the bad, the poignant, and the outrageous, she displays a voice that is by turns self-skewering, hopeful, and wise. <I>It's Not Me, It's You</i> is personal storytelling at its funniest, bravest, and most irresistible. 3982272 7 4 2009 It's Not Me, It's You: Subjective Recollections from a Terminally Optimistic, Chronically Sarcastic and Occasionally Inebriated Woman total:47|5:7|4:13|3:16|2:7|1:4| 47 153 156 10 1 0 false true Wed Jun 24 16:32:20 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 24 17:51:06 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 02 13:59:15 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 02 14:06:22 -0700 2009 more...]]> 1 0 false false Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 16:38:18 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 15:40:13 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 26 12:34:22 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 26 12:36:46 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Nov 06 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 10:52:12 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 10:53:02 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Aug 26 02:26:32 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 26 02:27:25 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Oct 14 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 06:53:56 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 06:54:53 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 29 09:54:07 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 29 09:54:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Apr 09 11:55:45 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 09 11:56:11 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Wed Sep 02 08:54:06 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 04:17:25 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Nov 13 15:01:03 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 13 15:01:03 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Nov 11 06:29:52 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 06:29:52 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 08 18:23:59 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 18:23:59 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Nov 04 20:39:42 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 20:39:42 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Tue Nov 03 12:45:17 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 03 12:45:17 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Nov 02 07:24:55 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 07:24:55 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Fri Oct 30 13:48:04 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 30 13:48:04 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 25 19:54:13 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 19:54:13 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sun Oct 25 11:35:33 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 11:35:33 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Oct 22 21:05:52 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 22 21:05:52 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3936696
