This truth-riot of a book gives us everything from hilarious lectures on the bad behavior all around us to razor-sharp essays on media and culture (Shonda Rhimes, New York Times best-selling author of Year of Yes and executive producer of Scandal and Grey's Anatomy) I don't know how Ajayi got so smart so young about so many things, from feminism to social media, from the pervasiveness of rape culture to the excellence of Red Lobster's Cheddar Bay Biscuits.
