My rating: 5 of 5 stars
You're Never Weird on the Internet is Felicia Day's memoir. I've been a big fan of Felicia Day for many years now and I'm a member of her Vaginal Fantasy book group on Goodreads. I had no idea that the young woman who seems so confident on camera actually suffers from so much self-doubt and crippling anxiety.
Felicia's memoir is funny and self-aware and she doesn't shy away from talking about her dysfunction as well as her success. This isn't a look at me, look at me, I'm so successful I did all this stuff and won the Internets story. It's a very insightful look inside her own mind, from her very unconventional upbringing, to her agonizing over writing The Guild, all the way to now. Felicia, you rock. You're my hero, er, heroine. I recognized so much of myself in these pages there were places where it was difficult to continue reading.
(Side note: If I ever met Nichelle Nichols, yeah, I'd do the exact same thing)
