"I Know I Am, But What Are You?" by Samantha Bee

239 pages

Samantha Bee, the Most Senior Correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, presents this collection of personal essays on topics ranging from her hatred of ham to her childhood crush on Jesus. Whether she's talking about the fact that strangers seem compelled to show her their genitals or the bizarreness of her former job as a Japanese anime character on a traveling children's show, she totally cracks me up. She shares so many personal stories and experiences that it's almost impossible to not relate to her in some way. I was pleased to discover that the humor that I love from her work on The Daily Show translates well onto the page.
