Publisher's summary

In her highly-anticipated nonfiction debut, humorist, popular blogger, and USA Today best-selling author Susannah B. Lewis (Whoa! Susannah) uses dry wit and an eye for the absurd to find laughter in even the most challenging circumstances.

Millions of online fans have flocked to Susannah B. Lewis's hysterical, take-no-prisoners videos that capture her uproarious yet deeply faithful view of the world. Now she brings to book form her keen eye for the absurd as she reveals her experiences growing up in a small Tennessee town. From the time an escaped albino panther wandered into her backyard to the Thanksgiving when an egg in the table's centerpiece hatched a baby chicken to the kind neighbors who brought casseroles in Tupperware for months - even years - after her father died when she was just 11 years old, the stories she tells delve deeply into the rich culture of the South that molded her. Clinging to the promises of God in times of grief and looking for every opportunity to laugh, Lewis is the wry yet wise girl next door who invites you to sit a spell beside her on the front porch.

Inspired

I enjoyed listening to Susannah tell her humorous stories and laughed along with them. And also losing both my parents and younger brother, cried along with her memories of her parents and shared her pain too. We as believers are not alone! We can move forward from loss and comfort others only to receive comfort in return.

So relatable!

What an entertaining book! I love Susannah’s wit, charm and the way she tells it like it is. I could relate to so many of her stories and thoughts. I really needed to be reminded of just how much Jesus loves me too. It was excellent. Can’t wait to listen to the next one!

Such TRUTH!

I thought I was getting a book that would make me laugh! I didn’t realize how much it would touch my heart and I would see myself or those I love in the chapters as Susannah pours her heart out. What a blessing this book was to me! And not coincidence that I was listening to it on Good Friday as I went about my home doing laundry and Mom stuff. Our savior died for us and rose again! It isn’t just a story! It is truth! Thank you, Susannah for the laughter, tears and reminders!

I’ve not cried so much in years!

I have read maybe 3 books, in my adult life. I decided to listen to this one. Oh, how I am overjoyed that I did. I could picture every scenery that Susannah described. My heart wept as I too remembered my grandmother. I wept at knowing loss. I cried so hard, I laughed. Thank you for helping remember it’s ok to cry and laugh.
