Every man should read this book. I learned that nail polish is a form of self-care and that one should not travel overseas with a vibrator in case TSA mistakes it for a bomb. That it's possible to write a poem to Barbie, or to describe sex as an act where 'people stick their genitals together for no apparent gain.' And I learned much, much more. -- Jay Heinrichs, author of Thank You for Arguing Like funny women themselves, Fast Funny Women contains multitudes. Barreca feminist, humorist, teacher and writer has assembled an impressive group of funny ladies for this book. Their essays peek into classrooms, careers, care packages, and the unique and special hell of online dating. It's a sampler of humor and humanity that will appeal to everyone, no matter their experience. -- A.J. O'Connell, author of A Perfect Facebook Life and Beware the Hawk With its punchline, the Hollander story is like a stand-up comedian's joke. Most of the Fast Funny Women essays, however, aren't so laugh-out-loud. Instead, they tend to be wry takes on the many aspects of life as a modern woman. -- Third Coast Review
