Follow New York Times best-selling author Mary Roach - but be careful not to trip - as she weaves through personal anecdotes and everyday musings riddled with her uncanny wit and amazingly analytical eye. These essays, which found a well-deserved home within the pages of Reader's Digest as the column "My Planet," detail the inner workings of hypochondriacs, hoarders, and compulsive cheapskates. (Did we mention neurotic interior designers and professional list makers?) For Roach, humor is hidden in the most unlikely places, which means that nothing is off limits.

The book had some humorous moments. I did not like the voice and tone of the reader for this book. It was a little on the annoying side for me. Others may not feel that way. I really loved the author's book "Gulp". It was quite funny, material I could use for teaching science.😜
