Don't pick up Bretman Rock's new memoir, 'You're That Bitch' (The Michigan Daily)

Bretman Rock is a force to be reckoned with, but his memoir is something that should go unnoticed and unread.

From inserts on “Douching Your Ass Like a Bad Bitch” to “How to Deal with Bullies” and “Finding Connection,” the planned readership is unclear. I won’t lie and say there wasn’t anything I enjoyed about “You’re That Bitch.” Highlights of the memoir were Rock’s efforts to make the reader laugh, with lines like “Walmart was the birthplace of my essence,” and when he declared Junie B. Unfortunately, “You’re That Bitch” is not a book I would — or could — recommend. Beyond simple spelling and grammatical errors — I’m not talking about purposeful errors, like the fact that Rock manages to spell “sexy” three different ways on the same page, but errors that had me checking to see if I received an uncorrected proof — the memoir’s structure is falling apart at the seams, the organization is almost laughable. “I’ve always been a divine blend of masculine and feminine—so if I look like a lesbian after a bicep bulging workout, call me he, but if I’m in full makeup wearing a Catholic schoolgirl plaid skirt and barrettes, call me she,” Rock wrote in the introduction. Since “he/him/his” pronouns are used in his biography and in the book jacket blurb, those are the pronouns I will use throughout this review.
