She talks about realizing that she isn’t the only one who feels this way, and how she’s surprised by some people she once thought were ‘normal.’ The memoir includes poems and personal essays touching on topics such as anxiety, insecurity, and fame.
The humorous essay collection is told in the same voice that made her popular. She writes about everything, including OCD, weirdness, her love for Disney, depression, and how she couldn’t use the toilet until the age of four. Bloom also shares how
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend came to be, and how she has lived in fear for most of her life.
She doesn’t shy away from discussing her feelings, even when they don’t align with what others might consider ‘normal.’ Bloom also delves into her struggles with bullying, and her relentless pursuit of her goals and dreams. The book includes fairy tales, interviews with both her past and future selves, and diary clippings from her school days.
Her stories help readers feel validated and boost their self-esteem as Rachel emphasizes that nobody is truly normal. The memoir also serves as a sample resume for theater people and a guide on how to deal with bullies. Bloom’s voice is conversational, clear, and hilarious, ensuring readers remain engaged throughout the book.
