About this ebook

#2 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* • “Rogen’s candid collection of sidesplitting essays . . . thrives at both explaining and encapsulating a generational comedic voice.”—The Washington Post

A collection of funny personal essays from one of the writers of Superbad and Pineapple Express and one of the producers of The Disaster Artist, Neighbors, and The Boys. (All of these words have been added to help this book show up in people’s searches using the wonders of algorithmic technology. Thanks for bearing with us!)
 
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR • New York Post • Marie Claire • Self • BookRiot

Hi! I’m Seth! I was asked to describe my book, Yearbook, for the inside flap (which is a gross phrase) and for websites and shit like that, so… here it goes!!!
 
Yearbook is a collection of true stories that I desperately hope are just funny at worst, and life-changingly amazing at best. (I understand that it’s likely the former, which is a fancy “book” way of saying “the first one.”) 
 
I talk about my grandparents, doing stand-up comedy as a teenager, bar mitzvahs, and Jewish summer camp, and tell way more stories about doing drugs than my mother would like. I also talk about some of my adventures in Los Angeles, and surely say things about other famous people that will create a wildly awkward conversation for me at a party one day.
 
I hope you enjoy the book should you buy it, and if you don’t enjoy it, I’m sorry. If you ever see me on the street and explain the situation, I’ll do my best to make it up to you.
 
*I was beaten by Bill O’Reilly, which really sucks.

Ratings and reviews

Seth is a diverse actor playing such roles as a spliff head, stoner and stoned spliff head. The natural successor to de Niro and Pacino, Seth will have you squealing like a little piggy as he recounts the times he got stoned, and high and stoned. Side splittingly hilarious, if you like that kind of thing.

I have not read a book in like 20 years... and I read this book in one sitting. It had me crying I was laughing so hard. I am a little older than Seth and this reminded me so much of my teenage years because of all his 90's references...

i havent had a book make me laugh out loud in such a long time! his personal stories really draw you in. if you cant decide if you want this or not, this is your sign to get it
