"London Hughes is all of us. Her combination of wild tenacity mixed with vulnerable and hugely relatable self reflection makes this book a hilarious must read. I love this woman."
 —Jameela Jamil

"At every turn, Hughes is as bold, hilarious, confiding, teasing, and provocative on the page as she is before the camera. Hughes' outspoken, saucy, and elevating success story will motivate readers with candor, laughter, and joy as she offers invaluable lessons on how to appreciate life, pursue one's dreams, and remain hopeful.”
 
 —Booklist

“Hughes moves seamlessly between humorous self-deprecation and
frank social analysis…(her) playful take on serious issues is irreverently
charming, and the book will be especially appealing to Black women
who have been gaslighted about the issues they’ve experienced in their
own careers. Emboldened by the author’s confidence, many readers will
be able to put these insecurities to rest. A delightfully layered memoir
about race, gender, and comedy.”—Kirkus

“There’s humor, resiliency, tears, and much more, all written in the powerful voice that readers will recognize from Hughes’s BBC comedies and 2020 Netflix special.”—Library Journal, Starred Review

"Extremely charming...a contemporary stab at the Dickensian formula, depicting how an outsider rose through the heavily structured British pop-cultural complex to make her dreams come true."—Vulture
