 Quirky, Neurotic, Entertaining Jul 04, 2008
The title of this book was the question I was contemplating of my own life at the time. Its reassuring to know that other people are too. Kari did a great job with this book,even self published, good for you and better for us the reader that you got it to print. I laughed and identified with her self-doubt and over analysis many times. But mostly I laughed. She's honest in her concern and quest for finding recognition of just what she's contributed in her lifetime and is there merit to it. The journey for both reader and Kari provide a catharsis to reconsider our definition of "mediocrity" or just getting on with life. Great things don't always happen in a big way but little by little.
Coming to terms with Kari Breed, one quip at a time... Jun 08, 2008
Kari Breed is masterful with the quip. She brandishes it like a fine-tuned sword that has been honed by life and polished with humor.
It's hard not to laugh most of the time that you are reading this book, whether it be funny-ha-ha laughing, or oh-dear-god-I-know-what-you-mean kind of laughing. The writing is from the perspective of an average gal talking about living an average life and being okay with it, but there is nothing average about the book itself.
Her writing is to the point, very funny, and above all, very relevant. Have you ever wondered what Douglas Adams' next book would have read like if instead of dying, he had a sex change and took plenty of estrogen pills? Okay, maybe it's just me, but I think Kari's book is a pretty good representation of what I had in mind.
She makes you realize that we are not alone, that we are all indeed very normal, or at least, we are all the sane kind of crazy.
Life IS Funny???? Apr 06, 2007
Have you ever thought "am I the only one this is happening to?" The author has a clever ability to bring humor to life's annoying nuances. There is something in this book everyone can relate to. This is a refreshing and honest funny voice on the scene today. Buy it, read it, LAUGH!
I love it! Mar 23, 2007
It's funny, it's poignant, it's real. And it's one of the best books I've read in a very long time, and I can see me reading it again and again.

Bumpy, funny road of life Feb 18, 2007
Very funny and provocative at the same time. a must read for those who think they are normal and those who know they are not. Kari's description of her life's travel is hilarious. Looking forward to the next chapter of her life. Start writing Kari!!!
