A collection of sidesplitting personal essays, poems, and even amusement park maps on the subjects of insecurity, fame, anxiety, and much more from the charming and wickedly funny co-creator and star of Crazy Ex-Girlfriends.

Rachel Bloom has felt out of place her whole life, whether in the hallowed halls of Manhattan Beach Middle School or on Twitter. Singled out by teachers, dumped by weird boyfriends, and ridiculed by roommates who were just trying to get some sleep, she was constantly reminded that she stood out. So she's decided to figure out exactly what makes her different. I Want To Be Where The Normal People Are is a hilarious exploration of all of Rachel Bloom's formative missteps, mishaps, and misanthropic moments.

In 'The Lamest Mistress', Rachel presents a tongue-in-cheek fairy tale about the curse laid upon her as a child and all the ways it affected her romantic relationships through the years. 'How Can I Explain?' tells the story of Rachel's fraught relationship with theatre and chronicles her growth from child theatre nerd to... adult theatre nerd. And in 'Extra! Extra! History Repeats Itself!' time-travelling thirteen-year-old Rachel teaches twenty-three-year-old Rachel a little lesson about bullying.

In this collection of laugh-out-loud-funny essays, all told in the unique voice (sometimes singing voice) that made her a star, Rachel writes about everything she thought made her abnormal, from her love of Disney, struggles with mental health, and Spanx to the story of how she didn't poop in the toilet until she was four years old. Her stories are hilarious, smart, and infinitely relatable (except for the pooping thing). No spoilers, but along the way, she might just come to realize that a lot of other people feel as abnormal as she feels. Okay fine, spoiler: she totally comes to realize that.
