"I'm awkward--and Black. Someone once told me those were the two worst things anyone could be. That someone was right. Where do I start?" Being an introvert in a world that regards introverts as hapless misfits and Black as cool isn't easy. But when Issa Rae is that introvert--whether she's navigating love, work, friendships, or 'rapping'--it sure is entertaining. Rae covers everything from cybersexing in the early days of the Internet to deflecting unsolicited comments on weight gain, from navigating the perils of eating out alone and public displays of affection to learning to accept yourself--natural hair and all.
