Start reading and get ready to be inspired, laugh your face off, and accomplish your dreams.” — Jenni Pulos, star of Bravo’s Flipping Out Author Kristin Giese proves she can deliver a laugh as effortlessly as she can a lesson in Another Hysterical Female, the second book by Giese. In the pages, Kristin mines what is funniest from her own life to find what might be true for us all.

Kristin’s brand of humor is the exact spoonful of sugar we need to help our heartache go down. Another Hysterical Female reads like an exploration in what it is to be a woman today. Kristin’s stories are real, vulnerable, disarmingly honest, and FUNNY. Her storytelling style is easy and conversational, with the feel of being seated next to her at a dinner party. Giese goes from your chatty and unexpectedly hilarious table-mate to the best friend you just hadn't met until now. In Another Hysterical Female, she regales us with stories from her childhood, life in entertainment as a talent manager, publicist, and producer, as well as the things she’s learned running her own company—all to shed light on how what has hurt us can also point us toward what could radically heal us. “If trauma had a tagline, it would If you don’t laugh, I’ll make you cry. It’s like a bully on the playground, holding us back from our happiness. In reality, we don’t have to get over what has hurt us to move forward in life, but we do have to stop believing that we are what has hurt us if we truly want to build our happiness. I’m spilling the beans on what hurt me in the hopes of doing just that in my own life.” WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE "Kristin is the best friend you never knew you needed.
