Summary

“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.” (Elizabeth Barrett Browning, 1850)

“How do I hate thee? How much time do you have?” (Joan Rivers, here, about two-ish)

Joan Rivers is a groundbreaking, award-winning, internationally renowned entertainment goddess. She’s also opinionated - especially when it comes to people she hates. Like people who think giving birth is a unique achievement. Or well-adjusted - a.k.a. boring - ex-child stars who don’t even have a decent addiction. 

With all of her diverse experiences, it stands to reason that Joan has seen, done, said, and heard a lot of hateful things. Thank god, she took notes. 

Here - uncensored and totally uninhibited - she give the best of her worst to First Ladies, closet cases, hypocrites, Hollywood, feminists, and overrated historical figures. And even when letting herself have it, Joan doesn’t hold back in this honest, unabashedly hilarious love letter to the hater in all of us.

A true laugh a minute.

Just wanted to say this book made me laugh out loud in explosive bursts (sometimes in public which was embarrassing) and I agree with Joan on about 85% of the things she hates. Maybe it's an age thing but she certainly gives it to us straight. Such brutal honesty is not only brave but hilariously funny. Yes she's cruel sometimes but she's also usually right!
Loved it.

What was she filled with more hate or botox?

Joan had an interesting look at life and her 'hates' where in places sketchy although like with all Joan's work it didn't come from a malicious place she just wanted to make people laugh

Hilarious and outrageous, Joan at her best.

Not for those easily offended!! Joan Rivers is legendary for her ability to make comedy out of any situation. In this book she proves that beyond any doubt. She’s outrageous, fearless and brutal in her observations and this book will have you in hysterics!!

Daring and funny we miss you Joan

I laughed so much listening to this book, Joan reads just like her delivery of stand up. Her inappropriate jokes are shocking and funny. If you want a laugh I recommend
