About this title

Review:

"Memorable and funny. . . . An amusing look at masculine insecurity and confusion."

--"Kirkus Reviews"

"This book is so frank, so full of amusingly embarrassing confessions, I should probably be giving Michael Black a hug instead of a blurb."

--Sarah Vowell, "New York Times "bestselling author and essayist

"It's no surprise that Michael Ian Black's book is hysterical. But I was surprised by how heartfelt and touching his memoir is. It's true: Michael Ian Black has emotions!"

--A.J. Jacobs, "New York Times "bestselling author of "The Year of Living Biblically "and "The Know-It-All"

"I loved "My Custom Van". But I loved "You're Not Doing It Right" even more. Reading this book felt like taking a long road trip with Michael himself--which I've done. And I actually recommend the book more. Touching, hilarious, and truthful all at once. What else do you want, America?"

--Mike Birbiglia, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Sleepwalk with Me"

""All these years, Michael Ian Black has not gotten enough credit for what a good writer he is. This book is charming and good company and--best of all--amazingly honest. And really, really funny, of course--though you probably already guessed at that part."

-- Ira Glass, This American Life
