Her acerbic wit quickly won the blog a massive following, and Bitter Is the New Black, Lancaster’s first memoir, was born. Next came Bright Lights, Big Ass, where readers shared the drama of an egotistical, smart-mouthed Republican adjusting to life in the big city. Lancaster then detailed her personal battle of the bulge (for health reasons) in Such a Pretty Fat. Pretty In Plaid is the prelude to all of these hysterical tomes, and the perfect read for anyone who has ever found themselves defending the merits of neon tights, or decided that blue eyeliner and pastel eye shadow are a winning combination.
