The extremely-likable Maria Bamford recounts with candor a lifetime of mental health battles in her book Sure, I’ll Join Your Cult. Her sincere quest for wellness has passed through a number of cloistered organizations, (Debtors Anonymous, Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, and Overeaters Anonymous) hence this work’s title.
If you are blessed enough to listen to this book, you’ll recognize her default state vocally as an animated Nickelodeon child. Periodically Maria seamlessly lapses into a dozen distinct audio impressions of women with various degrees of entitlement. Several are, yes, permutations of mother.
Maria is remarkably candid about the less-than-flattering moments from her personal life, including the hilarious as well as mortifying. You’ll laugh at both. Her romantic experiences from 25-50 alone warrant a checkout. You’ve heard the standup routines. Now meet the person. You’ll like her quite a bit.
