    About this audiobook

    New York Times Bestseller ● Publishers Weekly Bestseller ● Los Angeles Times Bestseller ● Wall Street Journal Bestseller

    A brilliant, hilarious, and honest essay collection from #1 New York Times bestselling author and YouTube sensation Shane Dawson about how messy life can get when you’re growing up but how rewarding it can feel when the clean-up is (pretty much) done.

    From his first vlog back in 2008 to his full-length film directorial debut Not Cool, Shane Dawson has been an open book when it comes to documenting his life. But behind the music video spoofs, TMI love life details, and outrageous commentary on everything the celebrity and Internet world has the nerve to dish out is a guy who grew up in a financially challenged but loving home in Long Beach, California, and who suffered all the teasing and social limitations that arise when you’re a morbidly obese kid with a pretty face, your mom is your best friend, and you can't get a date to save your life.

    In I Hate Myselfie, Shane steps away from his larger-than-life Internet persona and takes us deep into the experiences of an eccentric and introverted kid, who by observing the strange world around him developed a talent that would inspire millions of fans. Intelligent, hilarious, heartbreaking, and raw, I Hate Myselfie is a collection of eighteen personal essays about how messy life can get when you’re growing up and how rewarding it can feel when the clean-up is (pretty much) done.

      Listened to the first chapter. Found it near unbearable, promptly deleted after. Lots of misogynistic language, a joke about date rape, and using lesbians as the butt of a joke in a derogative way. Calling women as b*tches and c*nts so casually. Just gross Shane.

    • 3/5
      I remember when Shane came onto the scene in 2008. I remember finding him funny and have thought highly of him ever since. I fell out of watching his videos around 2010, but recently found my way back because of his conspiracy videos and the series he did with Jefree Star, who I adore and I absolutely adored the series. I honestly can't say much about the book, it's just Shane sharing his life. While his experiences are a rollercoaster, I can't help but cringe at some of his jokes. Shane is generally a funny person but some of the jokes he used are more tasteless than funny. I guess that's just probably me though. I'm not in my late teens anymore and my sense of humor has changed a lot. Overall, I enjoyed the ride and glad to know a little bit more about Shane, even though I don't watch him on the reg anymore. Either way, if you have clicked on the title and curious about the content, it's an interesting quick read/listen of your time.

    • 5/5
      Within the last two years-ish I've become a fan of Shane.
      I haven't gone back and watched his old stuff, or even a music video.
      I really like what he's doing now.
      This book fast-tracked his first years on youtube for me.

      I liked it. It was funny.
    • 4/5
      I'd never heard of Shane Dawson before I got this book. I read to my disabled wife every day, mainly humor, and I was out of books to read (having gone through the entire output of Dave Barry, Bill Bryson, Steve Martin, David Sedaris, and George Carlin, to give you an idea of what we laugh at). So I bought this solely on the basis of amazon's rating. He's younger than our daughter and inhabits a world that we never have and never will. He is demonstrably immature, vulgar, and generally weird. But, the thing is, we started liking the little s**t. He has admirable traits that are really kind of, well, sweet. He also doesn't hold anything back, his documentation of self-embarrassment second to none. We laughed as he laughed at himself. There isn't much in this book that's mean or snide. Well, except for waiting for Lindsay Lohan to die. The book ended too quickly for us. Now I have to look for something else to read to her.
    • 4/5
      I absolutely adored this book. I have watched Shane Dawson on YouTube for about a year now, so I was really interested in reading his book and having an opportunity to learn more about him. I found this book to be quite humorous (which was to be expected). I also think that his writing was actually pretty good. The only problem that I had with this book was the fact that it was hard to determine whether or not he was truthful in some of his stories. For example, the dialogue that he presented didn't seem realistic. It was funny to read, but in my honest opinion, people usually aren't that open with the things that they say to others. Other than that, I didn't have any issues with the book. It was a quick and fun read. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning more about Shane and/or looking for something that is light and funny.
