1 best seller for paperback nonfiction, so I decided it was time to see what humorous essays were all about. But Samantha Irby’s “Wow, No Thank You” was one of the most talked-about releases of the spring and the current No. Dragons, aliens and memoirs were all fine, but outside of a joke book or two as a kid I had never read much humor. With that being said, I still resisted the idea of “humor essays” because I never found myself wanting to read a funny book. Luckily I have come to see how essays are actually enjoyable. Why would I spend my free time reading a collection of essays, of all things? Essays were things I had to write for class or struggle to understand for a different class. There was a time when I saw the word “essays” on the front of a book and avoided it at all costs.
