Reader Review: The first time I heard about Mindy Kaling was while watching tv and a promo for her show The Mindy Project came on during a commercial break. My immediate thought was "finally a tv show with an actual woman as the star." It was truly refreshing to see someone who was not a stick thin person with boobs attached. It was about time that an average sized woman was featured on tv. Being a average sized, if a tad chubby, myself it was very heartening to see that this show made it to air. As for Mindy's book I found it hilarious. It resonated with me on so many levels. Her childhood was very interesting and I must say that her parents were totally awesome. There were some parts that weren't soul catching; such as those pertaining to The Office which is a show that I have never really found enjoyable. But that is nothing against the creators, writers, actors and all the other people involved in the show. It's just not my cup of tea when it comes to comedy. Overall the book was excellent and it really made me feel that I'm not alone in the way I look at certain things. Mindy would definitely make my list of being a person I would love to be friends with. If you have seen her new show (if you haven't you truly have to check it out) you absolutely have to check out Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns).
Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals, a timid chubster afraid of her own bike, a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright, and, finally, a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this, and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?”
Perhaps you want to know what Mindy thinks makes a great best friend (someone who will fill your prescription in the middle of the night), or what makes a great guy (one who is aware of all elderly people in any room at any time and acts accordingly), or what is the perfect amount of fame (so famous you can never get convicted of murder in a court of law), or how to maintain a trim figure (you will not find that information in these pages). If so, you’ve come to the right book, mostly!
In Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, Mindy invites readers on a tour of her life and her unscientific observations on romance, friendship, and Hollywood, with several conveniently placed stopping points for you to run errands and make phone calls. Mindy Kaling really is just a Girl Next Door—not so much literally anywhere in the continental United States, but definitely if you live in India or Sri Lanka.
