Absurd in a perfect way. Highly recommend if you want to lose yourself in something silly and chaotic. ( ) A manic pixie girl with no impulse control wreaks havoc on her own life and the lives of those around her. It reminded me too much of The Sarah Silverman Program -- with a nurse sidekick, even! -- and just made me wish I was watching that instead and singing along with its wacky songs. I had a little fun figuring out the occasional references to classic paintings (Birth of Venus, The Persistence of Memory, etc.) and pop culture icons (Peanuts, Calvin and Hobbes, Wayne's World, etc.), but the story sort of reviews itself when one character says to Fungirl, "You lead a life of fruitless follies . . . " no reviews | add a review
"FUNGIRL is a hapless (hopeless) hot mess of a woman crashing through life, leaving chaos in her wake. Although her oblivious antics infuriate her roommate, terrify the teenage skaters she tries to impress, and threaten her every opportunity for employment, FUNGIRL remains charming, transgressive, and hilarious."--Provided by publisher.
