Why read it?
1 author picked My Life as a Goddess as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I always relate to stories about outsiders, because I have often felt like one myself.

He is still fat and gay, but he is no longer a sad little outsider: he ended up being a highly respected comedy writer.
Have you ever noticed that it’s the lonely, nerdy kids who often grow up to be the successful ones?
From Annie's list on laughter and tears.
