It’s these valuable lessons from The University of Life that have taught her so many things, including the fact that cliches like ‘The University of Life’ are reeeally annoying.

Creator, mother, lover, and social media phenomenon Tova Leigh explores what the hell you are supposed to do when you find yourself living a life you don't remember signing up for. I was bored, angry, tired, and sad. I felt all alone yet I had nothing to complain about. I had a good job, a husband who wasn't shagging his assistant, three children who apart from being the occasional a**holes were pretty good kids; a house, a dog, and everything else we are told as little girls we should aspire to. But inside, I was growing restless.

Story
Truths from an Unreliable Witness is a fiercely honest and wryly funny memoir of melancholy, love, marriage, the loss of love and marriage, homelessness, of hotel rooms strewn with empty mini-bar bottles of vodka, of waking from a two-week coma, of putrid drug dens and using a jungle to confront yourself. It is about hitting rock bottom and then realising you are only halfway down. Ultimately, it's about hanging on to your last straw of sanity and finding laughter in the darkest of times. You may want to sit down for this....

Publisher's Summary
Tanya Hennessy can't tell the time on an analogue clock, was once employed as a stilt-walker and still sleeps with Morris, her childhood teddy bear, so naturally, she is the most qualified person to write a guidebook for growing up.
Am I Doing This Right? is an encyclopedia of life lessons that Tanya has learned so that you don't have to. From A is for Awkward, to B is for Bodies, right through to V is for Viral and Z is for, well, ZZZZ, Tanya has compiled an entire alphabet full of hilarious, horrible, humbling and happy experiences that will make you laugh, make you cry and ultimately leave you feeling less alone in this complicated world.

I've followed Tanya on social media for a while and am so happy she released a book! She's an absolute crack up and is so relatable it's scary. 10/10 would recommend for anyone who needs a laugh, to know theyre not alone in overthinking/ being awkward/ needing an adultier adult in their lives/ needing to love yourself more. Legend.

Quick easy listen
There wasn't really much of a story to this book, just a bunch of short anecdotes and personal insights, but some really funny moments and some honest ones. If you follow Tanya Hennessy on social media you may have already heard some of the stuff on here there's a bit that's recycled. She does a great job narrating her story.

Totally worth the wait!!
Already listened to 1/3 of this audio book since yesterday. Everything sounded very natural and the different tones in her voice made it even more interesting to listen to. It is satisfying to hear her read the book, because she is telling her own story and no one else can do it better than her. Her voice made the funny stories funnier, and the sad stories more emotional. If you spend some time listening to it, I am absolutely sure you will be moved by it just like I was. Best way to enjoy this book: Pair with donuts.

I just love her humour and her voice, it was a pleasure listening to her and her stories. She is such a great, lovely person and I find myself in so many aspects of her life and the way she is thinking.
