"The book June Cleaver would have written if she spent more time drinking and less time vacuuming. As a girl, Una LaMarche was as smart as she was awkward. She was blessed with a precocious intellect, a love of all things pop culture, and eyebrows bushier than Frida Kahlo's. Adversity made her stronger...and funnier. In UNABROW, Una shares the cringe-inducing lessons she's learned from a life as a late bloomer, including the seven deadly sins of DIY bangs, how not to make your own jorts, and how to handle pregnancy, plucking, and the rites of passage during which your own body is your worst frenemy"-- "Una LaMarche has written a hilarious take on coming of age by doling out all the advice she wishes her own mother had given her about everything, from how to take care of her unibrow to how to avoid the most common faux pas in the Facebook age"--… (mehr)

If you don't take this book too seriously it's great fun. It explores the awkward side of life starting in elementary school and ends after motherhood. The best parts are the diagrams and charts that Lamarche includes on illuminating topics such as top ten revelations from her childhood Barbie, the ways you are messing up your kids no matter what you do, and the ethics of public toilets.

You know how sometimes there are people you make an instant connection with and you get what they're saying from the minute they first introduce themselves? And then sometimes there are people you really want to like and you think they're perfectly lovely, but you just don't "click"? That was this book for me. We just didn't click. For me, it felt like a compilation of a person's "best stories" -- you know, the ones everybody has in their stable to trot out when they meet someone new or at a dinner party? But without knowing Una and without making that connection with her, they were just sort of ho-hum and forgettable. I don't doubt, though, that there are plenty of people who would click with her and really find this book entertaining. ( )

Unabrow is one of the funniest books I heave read in a long time. And when I say funny, I mean laugh out loud in the break room at work, and then get self-conscious because people heard you funny. Una tells her life story in a series of essays, charts, and lists that are as insightful as they are humorous. As a woman who also grew up in the 80s and 90s and is now dealing with the craziness of marriage and motherhood, I felt like I was reading the journal of a very funny friend. Highly recommended. ( )

Una is a quirky, kinda weird woman who tells stories of her life. Not sure I really understood this book. I don't think I would recommend this to any of my friends. ( )

Along the lines of Laurie Notaro and Jen Lancaster. So fun and entertaining. Poor thing growing up with those eyebrows. She is totally self effacing and comical. ( )
