Defiant Press, September 2011
This is Marie Simas' bestselling first release-- the #1 humor essay collection on Amazon UK for over 6 weeks in a row.
The intensity of Marie Simas's father's reactions to her head-strong behavior is so often disturbing, it borders on horrific abuse. Yet, she is irrepressible. Read it. Get it. You won't regret it. --Carol Leonard, Author of Lady's Hands, Lion's Heart
A most entertaining collection of childhood stories that will both shock and delight you. --Patricia Fry, author and editor
I gave this book to my co-worker who is a notorious hater. I made him read it...needless to say he laughed and laughed and said "this is true, you know." --Esperanza Eterna, Writer, Face it Without Blinking
From the Back Cover
These true stories will make you laugh out loud, and some will make you cry. "Do Tampons Take Your Virginity?" is a powerful, gut-wrenching memoir about what happens when you grow up in an insane Catholic family. Often surprisingly funny, the author's candid writing exposes the endurance it takes to survive a stifling, oppressive upbringing. It's an emotional roller coaster from start to finish. Each essay is written in sharp episodic chapters to mimic the author's real experiences, which range from brutal to hilarious, and everything in between.
*Note: This book contains adult language, sexual content, and adult themes.
