 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“An inspiring story that manages to be painful, honest, shocking, bawdy, and hilarious.” —The New York Times Book Review

From stand-up comedian, actress, and breakout star of Girls Trip, Tiffany Haddish, comes The Last Black Unicorn, a sidesplitting, hysterical, edgy, and unflinching collection of (extremely) personal essays, as fearless as the author herself.

Growing up in one of the poorest neighborhoods of South Central Los Angeles, Tiffany learned to survive by making people laugh. If she could do that, then her classmates would let her copy their homework, the other foster kids she lived with wouldn’t beat her up, and she might even get a boyfriend. Or at least she could make enough money—as the paid school mascot and in-demand Bar Mitzvah hype woman—to get her hair and nails done, so then she might get a boyfriend.

None of that worked (and she’s still single), but it allowed Tiffany to imagine a place for herself where she could do something she loved for a living: comedy.

Tiffany can’t avoid being funny—it’s just who she is, whether she’s plotting shocking, jaw-dropping revenge on an ex-boyfriend or learning how to handle her newfound fame despite still having a broke person’s mind-set. Finally poised to become a household name, she recounts with heart and humor how she came from nothing and nowhere to achieve her dreams by owning, sharing, and using her pain to heal others.

By turns hilarious, filthy, and brutally honest, The Last Black Unicorn shows the world who Tiffany Haddish really is—humble, grateful, down-to-earth, and funny as hell. And now, she’s ready to inspire others through the power of laughter.

I absolutely loved this audiobook, i felt like i was sat with a friend. Easy to listen to and genuinely funny, i laughed so much at points i wasn't even aware of how i must of looked and i also feel like i felt some of her pain too. Her story telling is great and i was listening to this ALL the time, when i had a second to spare i was listening.
I didn't really know who she was until i saw a trevor noah interview with her recently (old interview though) and she radiated this full of life, high enery, charismatic woman.

I have to admit that listening to her tell me her story with her charisma and talent has beat the actual reading of a book hands down. Get the audio! its awesome!

Actual Laugh Out Loud looking like a nutter stuff
