I'm Not Ready for This: Everybody Just Calm Down and Give Me a Minute

by Anna Lind Thomas

Overview

From popular humor writer and social media sensation Anna Lind Thomas comes the second book of charming and uproarious essays that capture our universal need for life to just slow down—we weren't ready for this!

Anna Lind Thomas wants everyone to just calm down and give her a minute, okay? She's not ready for this! In fact, through her latest collection of laugh-out-loud essays, she'll prove she's never been ready for anything in her life.

Adult decisions, marriage, parenting, crow's feet, large pores, skinny jeans—you name it, she ain't ready for it! Don't even get her started on that one time she appeared on national TV in a blazer two sizes too small because she thought she'd lose twenty pounds before the shoot. Good grief, she just wasn't ready!

I'm Not Ready for This will give you the encouragement you need to:

• Embrace the unexpected aspects of life
• Appreciate the incredible power of vulnerability
• Let God push you forward, even if you feel like you're not ready

Through her signature wit, charm, and painful relatability, Anna reminds us that no one's truly ready for anything—so we might as well go for it and see what happens. She bets it'll be real good—or at the very least, real funny.
