Acerca de esta escucha

"If you love storytelling in the style of David Sedaris, this audiobook - narrated by Janetti himself - is for you." (Yahoo Lifestyle)

This program is read by the author.

Fans of David Sedaris, Jenny Lawson, and Tina Fey...meet your new friend Gary Janetti.

Gary Janetti, the writer and producer for some of the most popular television comedies of all time, and creator of one of the most wickedly funny Instagram accounts there is, now turns his skills into a hilarious, and poignant audiobook chronicling the pains and indignities of everyday life.

Gary spends his 20s in New York, dreaming of starring on soap operas while in reality working at a hotel where he lusts after an unattainable colleague and battles a bellman who despises it when people actually use a bell to call him. He chronicles the torture of finding a job before the internet when you had to talk on the phone all the time, and fantasizes, as we all do, about who to tell off when he finally wins an Oscar. As Gary himself says, "These are essays from my childhood and young adulthood about things that still annoy me."

Original, brazen, and laugh out loud funny, Do You Mind if I Cancel? is something not to be missed.

Praise for Do You Mind If I Cancel?:

"Gary Janetti's book is so rolling-on-the-floor funny, so brilliantly observant, and so full of heart." (Kevin Kwan)

"The writing of Gary Janetti, whether televised or tweeted, is famously incisive and sharp-tongued. What a revelation it was, therefore, to discover in these revealing personal essays an artist of great tenderness and vulnerability. And he's still funny as hell." (Armistead Maupin)

"It’s no surprise that Gary Janetti's book is laugh-out-loud funny. It is just as cutting, wild, and droll as I hoped." (Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times best-selling author of Daisy Jones and the Six)

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Gary Janetti's book is so rolling-on-the-floor funny, so brilliantly observant, and so full of heart, I'm sure a jealous Prince George will decree that Gary be locked up in the Tower of London." (Kevin Kwan, New York Times best-selling author of the Crazy Rich Asians trilogy)

“It’s no surprise that Gary Janetti's book is laugh-out-loud funny. It is just as cutting, wild, and droll as I hoped.” (Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times best-selling author of Daisy Jones and the Six)

"Almost as soon as I began to read Gary Janetti’s Do You Mind If I Cancel?, I found myself feeling the way I felt when I first encountered Fran Lebowitz and David Rakoff: laughing and wanting to shout out the best bits to whoever else was in the room, even if no one else was there. This crazy quilt of memoir, cultural history, one-liners aplenty, and periodic arias of hopefulness, frustration, and brashly rude rage, is a work of intertwined great humor and great feeling. I’ve already lost my copy, snatched up by its next eager reader.” (Benjamin Dreyer, New York Times best-selling author of Dreyer's English)

Witty and enjoyable!

I'm fortunate to not have known who Gary was before this book, so I had absolutely no expectations. And I am pleasantly pleased.

The stories, the narration, the sass with which each tale is delivered made this a very enjoyable listen.

Hilariously poignant

Gary recounts the many profound milestones of his life with the dry humor and cutting snark you would expect, but also with brutal honesty of his coming of age moments. I am a huge fan so I loved every bit of it, and would recommend it without hesitation.

Of very little substance.

Read in Gary Janetti's deadpan voice, I thought that the book would be more laugh inducing. The stories are of little substance, and are honestly kind of boring like he's writing an essay for eighth grade English. Would probably not recommend.

Kept me entertained and laughing

Fun book. Very relatable, even to a straight female with no aspirations for stardom. I would have given the performance 5 stars except the pace was too varied without reason. It was easy enough to see past that and enjoy the stories though.

A great find

I was looking for something to listen to because I fell and injured myself. This was the perfect answer to my glum mood.
It made me laugh, and forget my cares. Thanks Audible and Gary!

Quick listen

This isn’t the typical, laugh out loud every few minutes story. Although I did laugh out loud quite a few times. As the listener you feel some of his emotions, and a peel into the journey of becoming himself in early adulthood. It’s something that I wish I had and would have appreciated in college or immediately after. He makes you think “why did we hold back so much” and “why did I worry so much about what everyone else *might* have thought about me”. Nice, short listen.

Gary Janetti is the best!

Love this audio book written and read by the Author. Gary is thoroughly entertaining and a magical, clever writer. I’m a long time fan of his so it was fun learning about his formative years and adventures. He never disappoints!

Everything and more!

I have been a fan of Gary's since the reality show he had with Brad. I've been a long time follower on Twitter and off course have post notifications on for his Instagram! There was no question I was going to get my hands on this book! I have the book but I needed to hear Gary read it. I'm glad I got the audible because I was dying laughing throughout the whole book. I finished it in one day while doing stuff around the house. Please write another book Gary! This book is freaking hilarious!
