Non-Fiction Memoir

Today's hottest geek and host of G4's ATTACK OF THE SHOW dishes her unique brand of humor of on everything from Star Wars, gadgets, and her love of banana cream pie.

In this hilarious collection you'll find essays like “thought’s About My First Agent’s Girlfriend’s Vagina,” wherein Olivia skewers what it’s like to live in Hollywood. In “Sex: What You Can Do to Help Yourself Have More of It,” she frankly gets down to the business of getting it on, including advice on how to appropriately wrap it and bag it. In “What to Do When the Robots Invade (Yes, When!),” Olivia offers valuable information on . . .  what to do when the robots invade! And just when you thought she couldn’t get any more geeky, she can. This book also includes such handy treasures as a timeline of great moments in Geek history, a flip book, an unofficial FAQ section, and a nifty (read: smokin') foldout poster.

Suck It, Wonder Woman! brings Olivia Munn’s unique humor, incredible wit, and lightning-fast costume changes to a world that needs more scrapbooking, sea monkeys, and for the love of God, a freakin' hoverboard!

You never know who or what you might find at a book signing. I can understand her pout at not getting Peaches as a gift.

I didn't know guys stood in line except for drinks or women.

I love Olivia Munn! Her cameo made me squee during "Iron Man 2"! And I'm not a boy either. :)

Great to see guys 'reading'.

Guys stand in line for women?!? Not that I've ever seen!

Actually, this does sound like a fun book. I'd never heard of her, so it'd be worth checking it out.

Later,

Lynn

It sounds like your evening was anything but dull!! It also sounds like the typical Hollywood thing for a star to do-- show up fashionably late for her own event. It's just a good thing that you had your own form of entertainment to pass the time!! I'm very curious to read her book. It must be as interesting a read as she is!!

Interesting how very different crowds
can be. A little scary some times, but
they aren't always what they seem. We
ended up among a group of bikers one
day. A bit intimidating until we
realized a couple of them were retired
military like us and many were baby
boomer professionals.
Sounds like it was interesting among
the geeks.

Cool book. I watch G4 all the time and she's funny. I hate her for being every man's dream. Hot and likes video games. On what planet is that fair?
