More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals, a timid chubster afraid of her own bike, a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright, and, finally, a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this, and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?”
Perhaps you want to know what Mindy thinks makes a great best friend (someone who will fill your prescription in the middle of the night), or what makes a great guy (one who is aware of all elderly people in any room at any time and acts accordingly), or what is the perfect amount of fame (so famous you can never get convicted of murder in a court of law), or how to maintain a trim figure (you will not find that information in these pages). If so, you’ve come to the right book, mostly!
In Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, Mindy invites readers on a tour of her life and her unscientific observations on romance, friendship, and Hollywood, with several conveniently placed stopping points for you to run errands and make phone calls. Mindy Kaling really is just a Girl Next Door—not so much literally anywhere in the continental United States, but definitely if you live in India or Sri Lanka.

Format:Hardcover
Just finished reading this - it was the first book to necessitate downloading the Kindle app for my iPhone and buying the ebook version because for some reason the UK shipping for the hard copy was 1-3 months, but worked out well as the audio extras are a fun touch. The essays cover a wide range of Mindy Kaling's thoughts, observations, and insights and is written in a conversational way that makes you feel like you are chatting to a friend. A really funny, interesting, smart friend. Too many highlights to mention, although I will say that the chapter "Guys Need to Do Almost Nothing to Be Great" should be gospel. I guess as Bossypants only came out earlier this year the Tina Fey comparisons will be inevitable. There are a few similarities, the most important being that both books make you laugh and feel happy. Who wouldn't want to have more books like that?

It is lovely to read a book that is both funny and informative. Funny because Kaling clearly has the comedy gene well and truly active in her make-up and informative because I now realise I should limit my product usage so people will think I'm a cowboy, which despite the fact I'm a gay man and not fishing for a lady wife (already having got myself a man-husband) seems something I need to get cracking on. I also approve of somebody organised enough to plan their own funeral and calorie count during revenge fantasies.

I'm a big fan of The Office and pretty fond of Mindy Kaling, so I was pretty happy to hear she'd written a book. And a lovely book it is too - nothing serious but genuinely entertaining and funny. It helps if the voice you use to read in your head is Kelly Kapoor's.
But then... How on earth is this book, which you can breeze through in a day or so, worth the £16 digital list price? Amazon are selling it for around £11, which is less, but still way too much.
