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-Girlfriend.

Rachel Bloom has felt  out of place her whole life, whether in the hallowed halls of Manhattan Beach Middle School or on Twitter. So she’s decided to figure out exactly what makes her so 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 a 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 struggles with mental health, to her love of Disney and Spanx, to the story of how she didn’t poop in the toilet until she was four. Her stories are hilarious, smart, and infinitely relatable (except for the pooping thing).
