Reviews
[Mindy Kaling is] like Tina Fey's cool little sister. Or perhaps... the next Nora Ephron. * The New York Times *
Kaling doles out neurotic charm and hilarious everywoman musings. * Elle *
Kaling's debut is the perfect combination of memoir and hilarious, goofy lists that you'd expect from The Office star and writer-executive producer. * Allure.com *
Reading her words is like listening to a likably gabby friend chatter happily over generously poured glasses of red wine. * Washington Post *
