The star of Bravo&;s breakout scripted comedy Odd Mom Out shares her razor-sharp wit and backhanded wisdom in a deeply observed and outrageously funny collection of musings, lists, essays, and outrages.
 
From her unique lingo (things don&;t simply frighten her, they &;M. Night Shyamalan her out&;) to her gimlet-eyed view of narrow-mindedness, to her morbid but curiously life-affirming parenting style, Jill Kargman is nothing if not original. In this hilarious new book, the sharp-elbowed mother of three turns her unconventional lens on life and death and everything in between, including
 
&; the politically correct peer pressure she felt from the new moms in her hood, the women who provided the grist for the mill of her hit television show
&; the evolution of her aesthetic from Miami Vice vibrant (a very brief flirtation) to Wednesday Addams&;meets&;rocker chic
&; her deep-seated New Yorker&;s discomfort with moving vehicles that aren&;t taxis and subways (a.k.a. &;suburban panic disorder&;)
&; the family obsession with reading obituaries for their medical revelations and real estate news value
&; the reasons why, in a land of tan-orexic baby-oil beach bakers, she chooses to honor the valor of her ghostly pallor
 
From a hellish visit to the Happiest Place on Earth to her unusual wedding night with Russell Crowe to her adrenaline-pumping Gay Pride parade experience, Sprinkle Glitter on My Grave is as wonderfully indecent and entertaining as a spring break road trip with your best friend. Assuming your best friend is the kind of gal who still wears a motorcycle jacket to pick up the kids at school.
Praise for Sprinkle Glitter on My Grave
&;We love her on Bravo&;s Odd Mom Out, and in Sprinkle Glitter on My Grave, Jill Kargman brings us a hilarious essay collection about life, death, and everything in between.&;&;PopSugar
 
&;The release (which reads in part like a memoir, or what we imagine it would be like to have a girls&; night in with the writer) is a humorous book filled with a closer look at the New York native&;s childhood and family, as well as her unfiltered opinions on any number of subjects, like parenting and fashion.&;&;Bravotv.com
 
&;[A] love letter to her deeply macabre family.&;&;Vogue
&;The creator of Bravo&;s Odd Mom Out, Kargman dishes out a variety of essays that poke fun at herself, her family, friends, and the world in general. . . . Prepare to laugh.&;&;Kirkus Reviews
&;A comedic, lively take on [Kargman&;s] life as an opinionated, Jewish native New Yorker . . . sharp and funny . . . Those looking for a new, fun voice that doesn&;t get too heavy will enjoy Kargman&;s perspective, which is rich with gratitude, laughs, and a healthy appreciation for the color black.&;&;Publisher&;s Weekly

Hardback. Condition: Good. Imagine if New York A-lister Nora Ephron had a love child with America s most-loved comedic scribe, David Sedaris. Their spawn would be Jill Kargman, the bestselling novelist turned satirist and star of Bravo s break-out scripted comedy, Odd Mom Out. Now Kargman shares her razor-sharp wit and backhanded wisdom in a deeply observed and outrageously funny collection of musings, lists, essays, and outrages. From the life-affirming outlook she got from her death-obsessed family (including the antithesis to her Goth aesthetic, ray of sunshine sister-in-law Drew Barrymore) to the appreciation for land (and limbs) she got from swimming with sharks off the South African coast, to the adrenaline-pumping experience that is a Gay Pride parade, Sprinkle Glitter on My Grave is a book about life, death, and everything that happens in between, that will both entertain and inspire.
