Jessi Klein

From Emmy award-winning comedy writer Jessi Klein, You'll Grow Out of It hilariously and candidly explores the journey of the 21st-century woman.As both a tomboy and a late bloomer, comedian Jessi Klein grew up feeling more like an outsider than a participant in the rites of modern femininity.In You'll Grow Out of It, Klein offers - through an incisive collection of real-life stories - a relentlessly funny yet poignant take on a variety of topics she has experienced along her strange journey to womanhood and beyond. These include her "transformation from Pippi Longstocking-esque tomboy to are-you-a-lesbian-or-what tom man," attempting to find watchable porn, and identifying the difference between being called "ma'am" and "miss" ("miss sounds like you weigh 99 pounds").Raw, relatable, and consistently hilarious, You'll Grow Out of It is a one-of-a-kind book by a singular and irresistible comic voice.

"No, cause this book is FUNNY. I genuinely makes you laugh. it’s such a good book to boost your mood. love this gurl. can’t wait to read more of her books"

Laura Ault

"I loved this book because it is just quirky and about a person who wants to be a “prinzzess” as she says but everything gets in her way. She is very funny and the way she reads so deadpan makes me laugh so hard because she seems like a funny lady so her delivery is perfect!! I’m a fan of personal essays and read plenty of them. It was incredible to hear jessi’s story!!!"

Finn Hughes

"A strong voice. The timeline skips around, which I enjoyed. Doesn't really stray from Hollywood woman topics though. I'll always be a fan of Jessi's work."
