My Drunk Kitchen: A Guide to Eating, Drinking and Going with Your Gut by Hannah Hart

Let me start by saying that, despite the name and Hannah's youtube show (which is ACTUALLY super funny, and I laughed a lot watching some of her videos, and she's such a sweetheart), this is by no means a cookbook. Yeah, ok, it has some very quick and even sloppy recipes that are perfect for those times when your hungry but there's nothing to eat, no materials and you have ZERO skills in the kitchen (which was perfect for me, because I find myself in this situation a lot, and even tried a few recipes from the book a couple times already - it saved me from starving). This is actually a motivational book, with some very witty and sarcastic writing and a lot of food punch lines and metaphors. Usually, motivational and self-help books are a no no for me, but I found myself entertained and even laughing with this one (yes, sometimes even by the horrible punch lines, judge me). The language is very easy and it's a super quick read, so I finished the ebook in a day and a half.
I gave it 5 stars because I was truly entertained and it has some truly good advice and somethings I need to hear (or read, in this case). For any adolescent/young adult who's a little bit insecure and it's still struggling with adulthood, this book is definitely for you. Or, if you're look for a quick and fun read, have jackshit skills in the kitchen and might die of starvation someday or just want to get really drunk, this is a good recommendation as well!
