Critics Review
“Carla Sosenko is raw, vulnerable, and utterly hilarious in I’ll Look So Hot in a Coffin … Sosenko isn’t afraid to completely bare herself in this candid and celebratory memoir.”—Harper’s Bazzar “Most Highly-Anticipated Books of 2025” “Carla Sosenko’s book is, quite simply, wonderful. She deftly deals with the big topics—sexism, disability, dating, love, family—with a light touch, deep insight, and irreverent humor. I plan to recommend it to all my friends.”—New York Times bestselling author and journalist A.J. Jacobs“Carla Sosenko’s wickedly funny memoir gave me the ultimate gift: It made me feel seen. The writer was born with a rare deformity, but her experience with body shame and judgment, from herself and others, is universal. Sosenko shows us her journey from self-hatred to joy so that we may follow her lead.”—Jo Piazza, bestselling author of The Sicilian Inheritance, podcast creator, and award-winning journalist
