Friends, I eked my way into another book! The title of this book, I Just Want to Be Alone, is so gloriously appropriate, I considered ending my post by just sharing it’s name with you. I think it speaks for itself??
But then I remembered this was a prime opportunity for me to lament about The Bees. What are The Bees? The Bees have become the defining element of my marital relationship for the coming spring season. I introduced them before, but in I Just Want to Be Alone, Jen of People I Want to Punch in the Throat humored me and let me rant and rave about them in a full-blown essay. An essay that professed my husband’s obsession with The Bees, my official non-love of The Bees, and the sticky situation we now find ourselves in–replete with honey and buzzing hives.
I know, I know, it’s a nail-biter. WILL THE SPIDELS SURVIVE? Honestly, the jury’s still out on that, but snatch up the book. Our plight makes me snort, and did I mention there are 36 other essays from some really funny women?
Yeah, it’s that cool. And it’s coming your way on March 22, but is available now for pre-order! It’s selling quickly, so go reserve your copy–consider it a gift to yourself to open later ;).
Add it to your Goodreads shelves too–and then bump it to the top of of your to-read list. You don’t want to miss this gem.
The second volume in the best-selling I Just Want to Pee Alone series is a collection of humorous essays from a bunch of the most Super Cool Lady Writers you’ll find on the web.
Don’t get us wrong, we love the men in our lives – we do (most of the time). It’s just that sometimes we would like them to go away. Not forever or anything like that. Just for an hour … or a day … or a weekend. We want some time to ourselves to read a good book or take a walk or do anything other than try to make a dent in the never ending mound of dirty clothes that keeps piling up on the floor on his side of the bed. We just want to be alone. All alone. Is that too much to ask?
I think not–go treat yourself to not only some laughs, but a some precious ALONE minutes while you read the book. With love from all of us to you. xo.
