"My name is 'J' and I'm awkward--and Black. Someone once told me those were the two worst things anyone could be. That someone was right. Where do I start?" Being an introvert in a world that glorifies cool isn't easy. But when Issa Rae, the creator of the Shorty Award-winning hit series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, is that introvert--whether she's navigating love, work, friendships, or rapping--it sure is entertaining.

Remember when we hit it off so well that we decided we’re going to need more wine? Well, this time you and I are going to turn to our friend the bartender and ask, you got anything stronger? I promise to continue to make you laugh, but with this round, the stakes get higher as the conversation goes deeper.

Publisher's Summary
Best Spoken Word Grammy Award nominee!
From stand-up comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish comes The Last Black Unicorn, a hilarious, edgy, and heart-wrenching collection of autobiographical essays that will leave you laughing through tears.
Tiffany Haddish grew up in one of the poorest parts of South Central Los Angeles. Her mother wound up with a debilitating brain injury after surviving a car accident. Tiffany never fit in anywhere: not in the households she rotated through in the foster care system and certainly not at the nearly all white high school she had to ride the bus an hour to attend. As an illiterate ninth grader, Tiffany did everything she could to survive. After a multitude of jobs, she finally realized that she had talent in an area she never would have suspected: comedy. Tiffany faced the 'routine' hindrances of climbing the entertainment business ladder - but had the added obstacles of sex, race, and class in her way. But she got there. She's humble, grateful, down to earth, and funny as hell. She still cleans the toilet the way she was shown by a foster mom who worked as a maid, and she still rolls her joints the way one of her foster dads taught her.
Tiffany can't avoid being funny: It's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

was loving it until the impersonations...
did not like the impersonations of individuals, even though she calls them her friends or says she loves them later. Decided to stop listening near the end of the book since I started to just dislike her...

A hilarious POV from a hard life.
This was a great rlisten! In fact, I would actively dissuade people from reading this one as a book. Haddish's delivery for the audiobook elevated it to a whole other level!
For someone who has lived such a tough, dark life, Haddish has magically retained the ability to see the humour in nearly every situation and bring smiles to people's faces. When talking about the abuse and neglect she suffered at the hands of the people she loved and trusted most, the pain was obvious in her voice. But then she went ahead and ended the audiobook with a musical rendition of the first few paragraphs of the book! She truly is a unicorn!

empowering af
Typically, I don't listen to Audiobooks as I prefer reading off my Kindle BUT because I love Tiffany Haddish and found myself binging all these YouTube clips of her interviews, I knew I had to sign up for the Audiobooks trial and use that credit on this book. Zero regrets. The way she reads and delivers the content of her book is so engaging and it really rewires how you think about your own life situations. From the tone to the pace to the emphasis on specific words, I would highly recommend this Audiobook. I'm so happy to see her utilizing all these stories to empower and entertain others. This is my second time using Audiobooks because the first time, you would be surprised at how some authors do not have that energy in delivering their own stories. Whereas Tiffany Haddish delivered.
Absolutely compelling stories. It really warms up my heart and I hope it will warm up yours when you give this a listen or read. I cannot wait to see her accomplish all the goals that she has.
