A new rip-roaring essay collection from the smart, edgy, hilarious, unabashedly raunchy, and bestselling Samantha Irby.

Irby is forty, and increasingly uncomfortable in her own skin despite what Inspirational Instagram Infographics have promised her. She has left her job as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic, has published successful books and has been friendzoned by Hollywood, left Chicago, and moved into a house with a garden that requires repairs and know-how with her wife in a Blue town in the middle of a Red state where she now hosts book clubs and makes mason jar salads. This is the bourgeois life of a Hallmark Channel dream. She goes on bad dates with new friends, spends weeks in Los Angeles taking meetings with "tv executives slash amateur astrologers" while being a "cheese fry-eating slightly damp Midwest person," "with neck pain and no cartilage in [her] knees," who still hides past due bills under her pillow.
The essays in this collection draw on the raw, hilarious particulars of Irby's new life. Wow, No Thank You is Irby at her most unflinching, riotous, and relatable.

Featured Article: The top 100 memoirs of all time


All genres considered, the memoir is among the most difficult and complex for a writer to pull off. After all, giving voice to your own lived experience and recounting deeply painful or uncomfortable memories in a way that still engages and entertains is a remarkable feat. These autobiographies, often narrated by the authors themselves, shine with raw, unfiltered emotion sure to resonate with any listener. But don't just take our word for it—queue up any one of these listens, and you'll hear exactly what we mean.

Editor's Pick

Samantha Irby is a genius
"From the second I saw the title Wow, No Thank You this phrase instantly became my new battle cry. Try saying it right now—doesn't it feel great?! It's handy in so many situations!! Samantha Irby is a genius. I like to picture her typing away in her attic in Kalamazoo, cackling out loud every once in awhile when she comes up with a particularly funny line. Her latest essay collection is a pure delight, but I especially love the glimpse we get behind the curtain as Sam tries to adjust to her new life as a successful writer: the ins and outs of getting a book deal, how she wound up collaborating with Broad City's Abbi Jacobson, and what it was like to write the fat-positive pool party scene of Lindy West's Hulu series, Shrill. She remains as charmingly baffled by her success as ever, and if there are any network executives reading this: can we get that Abbi Jacobson / Samantha Irby project stat, please??"—Rachel S., Audible Editor

not often do I laugh out loud like a crazy person when listening to audio books. That was the case here AND with all of her books on audible. Makes my commute fly by.

Samantha Irby makes me LOL IRL

I absolutely loved this book. Samantha Irby’s writing style is perfectly reflected in her audiobook performance. It’s pleasant to listen to and kept me laughing. It’s thoughtfully worded, insightful, and made my brain happy. I’ve now listen to all of her audiobooks and they’re all the same caliber of excellence. Sometimes I worry when the author is also the performer, but never with Irby, as she’s just as talented at performing as she is writing. I’m grateful to the author for making my brain happy and relaxed, and I think other people who suffer from potentially embarrassing chronic illnesses (me, hi!) and healthy people alike will enjoy this!

Thoughtful, insightful, funny, lovely

Samantha Irby, I just want to say I love you. Thank you for sharing your stories. And for being a human. And for making me feel less ashamed about the unflattering things that being a human entails for me.

I just... loved this book.
