MEMOIR MARCH: A Walk in the Snark by Rachel Thompson



I have been spending an inordinate amount of time rereading Rachel in the OC snarking blogging HERE.  I follow her on twitter and just thank my lucky stars that there is a mom in OC that can actually read and write.  Seriously, she gives hope to all of literate women in the OC since the rest of the world views us as vapid, drunk and housewives.  Oh, and the bonus is that she has SNARK in the title of her latest release.  Sigh, I love snark. 

Description

“Sometimes I think I’m too jaded. But then I think no, it’s just the lighting.”

With her trademark snarky humor and candor, Rachel whisks you into her caffeinated world where she deconstructs common phrases (I’m Fine) and makes up words (Refrigeratoritis) in order to help dudes understand chicks…and vice versa.

Rachel believes “Men are from Seinfeld, Women are from Friends” and so do her legions of fans. She dares to ask “why do men want to change the world but can’t change a roll of toilet paper?”

Drawing on her decades (dear god has it been that long?) of marriage, friendships, and past relationships, Rachel’s specialty is observing male behavior and dissecting it with humor (Shopping is NOT a Verb). Think of her as the Scientist of Snark…without the ugly white labcoat of course. #asif

“Husband: Mumble, mumble, mumble.
11yo: What?
Me: It’s okay. I speak husband.”

But don’t let that witty veneer fool you. Sprinkled throughout these funny essays are some poignant stories of tragedy and loss (The Difficult Kind). This chick will tear at your heart. And then, you know, stitch it back together with humorous aplomb.
