In Laughing
in the Rain, Hillary Saffran tries to help readers take the edge off of
their stressful situations by showing a humorous attitude in areas that most
people can connect with. She talks about areas such as college, what womens' bodies are like after they give birth, the age when it all starts coming apart, and
even dating after a divorce. She understands that life gets very stressful
because she has been through many of the situations herself and tries to help
readers take the edge off and make their lives easier through laughing. The
book also contains some humorous quotes by well-known people, and random
pictures.
Hillary had a funny of way of showing me how
something joyful and funny can come from each stressful situation I encounter,
I just have to look for the humor and I will find it. It will take an edge off
of the hardships, helping me to find some good in those situations, if I want
and need to laugh and chill out. She shows how humor can often be found in serious
situations, sometimes even in Bible stories. It is often hard for me to want to
find something to laugh about if it sounds like it’s supposed to be serious, or
it is a serious situation. So, I am thankful this book encouraged me to try to
dig a little deeper for some humor when dealing with serious situations.
My rating = 4.5 out of 5
