Table of ContentsReviewsPraise for You'll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey: The book is a portrait of one person's struggle to maintain dignity, strength and self-respect when faced with injustices small and large--all told with Ruffin's irreverent, sardonic style. --People A must-read that will have Black women feeling seen and heard, and will allow others to better understand the effects of racism. With YA crossover appeal, this is also an excellent choice for book clubs. --Library Journal (starred review) A perfect follow-up to the authors' You'll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey . . . The banter between the sisters is consistently funny, but the underlying social commentary remains incisive . . . An excellent look at lived experiences of Black Americans that should be required reading for all Americans. --Kirkus, Starred Review I dare you to read this hilarious and eye-opening book and not become obsessed with Amber Ruffin. --Mindy Kaling Thank you again to the Ruffin sisters for stuffing ten pounds of truth in a (funny!) five pound bag. --Tina Fey This timely and timeless book is hilarious, insightful, aggravating and comforting in equal measure. --Salon To read stories you won't soon forget, told in a totally memorable way by some very funny and generous writers, check out The World Record Book of Racist Stories. --BookPage Told with humor and headshakes . . . A great book to give someone who loves to laugh and learn at the same time. --BookRiot Author InformationAmber Ruffin is the host of The Amber Ruffin Show on NBC's streaming service, Peacock, and a writer and cast member on NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers.
