Book review:
Happyish by Jeanette Escudero this sometimes surreal and often just flabby lament of middle aging and social media bald spots stumbles from its 44th birthday beginning with vagina surgery jobs porn Steve Jobs name dropping Mad Men slamming career in security and technophobia

A Showtime cottage industry watching happiness has the very unexpected outcome I guess of reminding to me how good California keishon at least in the early days could be and by comparison
