From breakout stand-up comedian Iliza Shlesinger comes a subversively funny collection of essays and observations on a confident woman's approach to friendship, singlehood and relationships. "Girl Logic" is Iliza's term for the way women obsess over details and situations that men don't necessarily even notice. She believes females have a way of thinking that appears to be contradictory and circuitous but is actually a complicated and highly evolved way of looking at the world. When confronted with critical decisions, Iliza argues that women will by nature consider every repercussion of every option before making a move toward what they really want, and that kind of holistic thinking can actually give women an advantage in what is still a male world.
