She Memes Well

De: Quinta Brunson

Narrado por: Quinta Brunson

Features an Audible Exclusive: The Making of Abbott Elementary.

“In She Memes Well, Quinta gives more than a peek behind the curtain. She invites us in, lets us poke around and offers a balm for our aching souls. She moves beyond the jokes into something much deeper, something we may not recognize we need. She is the friend, sister, lover, cool co-worker we all wished we had.” (Gabrielle Union, actress and New York Times best-selling author of We’re Going to Need More Wine)

From comedian Quinta Brunson (creator and star of Abbott Elementary) comes a deeply personal and funny collection of essays about trying to make it when you're struggling, the importance of staying true to your roots, and how she's redefined humor online. This special Audible edition includes never-before-heard details about the making of Abbott Elementary, the cast, the writers' room, and how the show inadvertently created hundreds of new roles for young Black actors.

Quinta Brunson is a master at breaking the internet. Before having any traditional background in media, her humorous videos were the first to go viral on Instagram’s platform. From there, Brunson’s wryly observant POV helped cement her status in the comedy world at large, with roles on HBO, Netflix, ABC, Adult Swim, BuzzFeed, the CW, and Comedy Central. Now, Brunson is bringing her comedic chops to the page in She Memes Well, an earnest, laugh-out-loud collection about this unusual road to notoriety.

In her debut essay collection, Quinta applies her trademark humor and heart to discuss what it was like to go from a girl who loved the World Wide Web to a girl whose face launched a thousand memes. With anecdotes that range from the ridiculous—like the time she decided to go clubbing wearing an outfit she describes as "Gary Coleman meets metrosexual pirate"—to more heartfelt material about her struggles with depression, Quinta's voice is entirely authentic and eminently enjoyable. With its intimate tone and hilarious moments, She Memes Well will make you feel as if you're sitting down with your chillest, funniest friend.

Quinta is incredible

The way Quinta reads each chapter truly conveys how she felt during each chapter of her life. She’ll make you laugh, cry and reflect on the world we’re living in today. I would recommend this book to everyone.

Loved it!!!!

I absolutely loves this book and the background to one of my favorite show on tv and now writer ❤️

Authentic

This was a great listen! I loved hearing the inside scoop on Abbott Elementary, which is how I discovered Quinta, and learning the rest of her story and the events/other works that have inspired her own work was a wonderful insight into her. Worth a listen whether you are familiar with her work or not! Would be a 4.5 if I could.

Fantastic

I love Quinta's work as a comedian. Listening to the book made me feel like I got to know her on a deeper level. I look forward to continuing to celebrate her success.

Amazing Book

I enjoyed this book from start to finish. I enjoyed learning more about where the author started as a child in the PA school system, love, family and stardom. Just an overall great listen. Thank you Quinta. Congratulations on all your success. Well deserved and earned. Cheers to all your future success.

Love her!

Love her and her story! I think she is incredibly talented and I’m glad she is getting the recognition she deserves!

Exactly what I expected

I've been a fan of Quinta since before BuzzFeed. Her skits were hilarious. When I heard she left them I was sad because I wasn't sure when I would see her again. Being able to hear her journey from a young girl to Abbott Elementary was rather interesting. She's relatable. Her upbringing, education, activities, and friendships seemed normal.

This book for me was informative. There were lots of funny parts and some really good serious parts. I'm excited to see how she continues to grow.

Great Book!!!

It was great listening to the natural side of Quinta. This book will help you enjoy her work even more. I especially loved the Epilogue and the deep dive into Abbott Elementary background/behind the scenes.

She Memes Business

I loved hearing Quinta’s story. The bonus peak into the creation of Abbot Elementary was wonderful. I wish her the best throughout her career and hopefully we will get another wonderfully written account of her life as it continues.

Love it!

Quinta never disappoints! Awesome to learn more about her life and get some really cool insight into the entertainment business. Especially when it comes to her unconventional stardom via a meme leading her to becoming a writer and star of one of the, in my opinion, greatest sitcom tv shows of all time. -Leah
