Book Rec: How to Be a Person in the World by Heather Havrilesky

This is a book recommendation episode. In it, Travis and Amanda will attempt to persuade you, our wonderful listeners, to join us for a literary journey. Expect this episode to be under 30 minutes long, include references to the work but not spoilers, and celebrate what makes it compelling.

This book recommendation is for HOW TO BE A PERSON IN THE WORLD by Heather Havrilesky. From the cover: “Heather Havrilesky of the wildly popular Ask Polly advice column is here to guide you through the “what if’s” and “I don’t knows” of modern life with the signature wisdom and tough love her readers have come to expect. This is a hilarious, frank, and witty collection of never-before-published material along with a few fan favorites…Havrilesky writes with equal parts grace, humor, and compassion.”
