She was funny but a book is longer and deeper than a Netflix Stand-up Comedy Special and therefore I gotta admit it got to be a bit annoying sometimes lol. Ya know? Like you don’t have to be funny every sentence that exits your mouth or thought that forms in your brain. I liked it…and Izzy definitely had all the makings of a great comedian because she was funny, really funny and snarky and sarcastic but…sometimes it was a bit too much.

But after she’s caught in a compromising position with the son of a politician, it seems like everyone around her is eager to give her a new label: slut. “Eighteen-year-old Izzy O’Neill knows exactly who she is-a loyal friend, an aspiring comedian, and a person who believes that milk shakes and Reese’s peanut butter cups are major food groups.
