Started listening to it this morning! Unsurprisingly, it is already hilarious and so well written. I only wish it were Katie reading the Audible version. 😢 Well done, Herzog!! ♥️

Who did the audio book? Mike Pesca?

I'd pay a buck to have had Helen Lewis do it. Would take probably four minutes to listen to, she talks so quickly!

Or Jesse in Helen's voice? That'd be my preference

I’d prefer Katie to do it, but in her masked-COVID-doomer-British-journalist accent

If it’s not Katie Herzog reading it at least I hope it’s Werner Herzog

Or have Jesse read it in his "Katie" voice.

I bought the Kindle version of Katie's book....and I stole Kamala's book from Z-Library.

Katie, you'll need to tell Amazon this book is trying to steal your sales https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FT7LKSFK/#

*EDIT* It's gone. This is what it was: https://i.imgur.com/xyOmR7S.png

Books of a certain market size just have these made automatically to try to get people who don't look closely to accidentally buy them.

Big sellers have people who check on these things and will get them smothered in the crib before any proceeds from the sale can be claimed. It's the moderately successful new books that get these copycats.

Who's doing it? Chi-Na?

Random scammers who can generate something close enough with AI to do this at scale.

In your honor, Katie, I’ll crack a tall one every day for the 4-6 weeks it will take my local library to fulfill my purchase request of your book

Dumb question but assuming buying through audible still counts? Katie doesn’t read it though, which is too bad

It popped up on my Kindle at midnight, due to pre-ordering. Happy to see it!

When I heard the UPS guy pull up in the yard, a package slap onto the porch, and then listend to him pull away, I didn't get out of bed, because I was not expecting a package. And yet it was for me. Because I had totally forgotten that I pre-ordered your book. Which apparently means that I need it.

I just hope the audiobook version drops some sick rhymes over dope beats.

I'm actually glad to be reading the hardcopy because I can hear Katie reading it. Also, I am reading it aloud to my 10 month old this morning as her morning reading 😂 and I don't have to feel guilty staring at my phone all day and reading it on kindle.

Katie- you don't know me, but I feel like I know you, and so I say to you: Congrats! I'm so proud of you!! I already bought one for a friend and can't wait to read my own copy.

I pre-ordered on bookshop.com! I am going to read it, and then make my friend who is a doctor of psychiatric nursing read it as well.

I am already halfway through the audio book - sad that Katie did not narrate it. It is great so far. I bought a copy of the book, too. Girl deserves that bag.

Did they get RFK to narrate?

No, he narrates his own book, "Snort Your Way to a Cabinet Position"

My copy arrives today. Looking forward to reading about forgotten pharmaceutical interventions for addiction and hot girl on girl domestic violence!
