And, now, for my final #ComedyBookWeek post, my review of Ana Spoke's Shizzle, Inc. This book is a hilarious, roller-coaster, screwball comedy
that moves at a breakneck pace. It’s funny, it’s charming, it’s total craziness.
I loved it.
Isla Maxwell is a new graduate looking for a new job. She’s
also the quintessential chaos
magnet. The crazy is drawn to her like a moth to a flame. She wakes up after an
epic night on the town with a raging hangover, a ransacked house (someone
burglarized her place while she slept), and empty wardrobe, and a few minutes
before she’s due for a job interview. She makes a dress out of curtains, puts
on her lipstick, and lands a coveted personal assistant position with an
eccentric billionaire at Sizzle, Inc.
That’s when things start to get weird.
Her boss is wacko and her job description is…shall we say
flexible? Her family is batshit. Her friends try to impose some order, but the
indefatigable entropic force that is Isla Maxwell cannot be contained. Things inevitably go from outrageously
bad to incredibly worse. Through
it al, Isla is charming, funny, and relentlessly optimistic. She reminds me of
a millennial Mary Poppins, completely unfazed by all the craziness around her.
Overall, this was a funny, entertaining read with a charming
protagonist.
