Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) Mindy Kaling
Publisher: Crown Publishing Group

To be honest, I haven't seen a single full episode of the TV series The Office, let alone be a fan of the series or Mindy Kaling. Last fall in The New Yorker I read an excerpt from her book, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? This book actually makes me laugh out loud. I didn't even have any idea who Mindy Kaling is. I have realized though, that my sister, Ellen, is a little bit like her. (And Other Concerns), and immediately put the book on my to-read list. Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? Some books are not great morning companions, but Mindy Kaling's book kept me running, then kept me company right on through laundry and making beds and a hundred other mundane tasks. However, reading this book I am anxious to find a friend JUST like Mindy. I'm hoping that by highlighting titles this way, I can encourage. And Other Concerns shares her journey from chubby nerd to a writer, actress, director, and producer on a highly successful Emmy-winning television show. Her comic memoir, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? Off the Stacks is a weekly-ish feature where I highlight a nonfiction book I'm curious about but will probably run out of hours in the day to actually read.
