Opinião Pessoal: Assim que comprei este livro, apeteceu-me logo começar a lê-lo, por parecer super divertido. E é.
É desconcertante, hardcore, provocador, verdadeiro e sincero.
Nesta obra, Dunham conta-nos episódios da sua vida que a marcaram intensamente, separando-os por vários capítulos: "Amor e Sexo", "O corpo", "A amizade", "O trabalho" e "O panorama geral".
A sua escrita é bastante descontraída, sem vergonha de relatar as situações embaraçosas por que passou e que eu considero que acontecem a muitas outras raparigas.
Porém, eu penso que é um livro mais simples e fácil de ler, destinado a leituras leves, mas que mesmo assim cativa o leitor.
As ilustrações são muito boas.
Classificação: 7/10 (Bom!)
O livro está disponível na Fnac, no site da Editorial Presença, na Wook e na Bertrand.

Plot: "Lena Dunham, acclaimed writer-director-star of HBO and Sky Atlantic's 'Girls' and the award-winning movie 'Tiny Furniture', displays her unique powers of observation, wisdom and humour in this exceptional collection of essays. For readers of Nora Ephron, Tina Fey, and David Sedaris, this hilarious, poignant, and extremely frank collection of personal essays confirms Lena Dunham - the acclaimed creator, producer, and star of HBO's 'Girls' - as one of the brightest and most original writers working today. "If I can take what I've learned in this life and make one treacherous relationship or degrading job easier for you, perhaps even prevent you from becoming temporarily vegan, then every misstep of mine will have been worthwhile. This book contains stories about wonderful nights with terrible boys and terrible days with wonderful friends, about ambition and the two existential crises I had before the age of twenty. About fashion and its many discontents. About publicly sharing your body, having to prove yourself in a meeting full of fifty-year-old men, and the health fears (tinnitus, lamp dust, infertility) that keep me up at night. I'm already predicting my future shame at thinking I had anything to offer you with this book, but also my future glory in having stopped you from trying an expensive juice cleanse or having the kind of sexual encounter where you keep your sneakers on. No, I am not a sexpert, a psychologist, or a registered dietician. I am not a married mother of three or the owner of a successful hosiery franchise. But I am a girl with a keen interest in self-actualization, sending hopeful dispatches from the front lines of that struggle."
Personal Opinion: Right as I bought the book, I wanted to start reading it because it looked so funny. And it is.
It's mind blowing, honest, hardcore, true and great.
In this book, Dunham tells us episodes of her life, since she was a child, that have been important or unforgettable in 5 chapters.
Her writting is very relaxed and the fact that Lena is not ashame to let us know all her stories is very powerful.
It's a simple and easy book, great for readers who prefer lighter books.
The illustrations are great.
Rate: 7/10 (Good!)
