Critics Review

‘… shot through with her trademark wit … but it’s also poignant, meditative and thoughtful in the way she navigates her way towards a new life’ * Sydney Morning Herald *
‘… Lucy at her self-deprecating best’ * AU Review *
‘… the epitome of her work. It’s absolutely wet-your-pants funny as well as gritty and admirably authentic … a candid, powerful and truly outstanding book. A fantastic read in present times, it truly is a most enthralling read.’ * Great Escape Books *
Turns Out, I’m Fine is poignant, deep and meaningful, while packing punchlines and sardonic asides like sardines.’ * Sydney Arts Guide *
‘Award-winning comedian Judith Lucy produces a sincere and forthright memoir … Not one for those who are easily offended, Lucy’s writing mirrors her performance: confronting at times, but straightforward – with copious use of expletives, but always sardonic and amusing.’ * PS News *
‘This book felt so real and honest – it made me feel like Lucy was the cool, childfree aunt that would tell you the truth. Even if it hurts, no sugarcoating.’ * Booktopia *
