"Here's something I can say with perfect certainty: Andy Corren has written the best scene I know of involving Donny Osmond, a standard poodle named Licorice, and a young man's sexual awakening. And lucky for us, he's written a whole lot more. Dirtbag Queen is an irreverent, laugh-out-loud look back at an outrageous childhood. It's also an exquisite love letter to a woman who broke every rule of motherhood and taught her children how to live." 
 —Grant Ginder, author of The People We Hate at the Wedding

"Fantastic. Utterly unhinged, hilarious, and unexpectedly heartbreaking.”—#1 New York Times bestseller Jenny Lawson

Dirtbag Queen is told with the kind of unyielding honesty, devastating humor and above all tender familial pride that makes a seemingly eccentric upbringing feel universal. You will not regret a moment you spend with this family—nor will you ever forget them.”—Steven Rowley, New York Times Bestselling author of The Guncle

"Buckle your seat belts, clear the decks, cancel all social obligations because once you start Andy Corren’s hilarious, sacrilegious, and brilliantly tenderhearted memoir, you won’t want to stop until the bittersweet end.”
 —Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney, New York Times bestselling author of The Nest and Good Company

“Dirtbag Queen is so funny, smart and original that while I was reading Andy Corren's fantastic memoir I had to keep reminding myself that I didn't write it."
 —Alan Zweibel, Original SNL writer and Thurber Prize winning author of Laugh Lines: My Life Helping Funny People Be Funnier
