520    In So Close to Being the Sh*t, Y’all Don’t Even Know, 
       Parks and Recreation star Retta takes us on her not-so-
       meteoric rise from roaches to riches (well, rich enough 
       that she can buy $15,000 designer handbags yet scared 
       enough to know she’s always a heartbeat away from ramen 
       with American cheese).  Throwing her hard-working Liberian
       parents for a loop, Retta abandons her plan to attend med 
       school after graduating Duke University to move to 
       Hollywood to star in her own sitcom―like her comedy 
       heroes Lucille Ball and Roseanne.  Say what? Word. Turns 
       out Retta might actually be on to something. After winning
       Comedy Central’s stand-up competition, she should be ready
       for prime time―but a fear of success derails her biggest 
       dream.  Whether reminiscing about her days as a contract 
       chemist at GlaxoSmithKline, telling “dirty” jokes to 
       Mormons, feeling like the odd man out on Parks, fending 
       off racist trolls on Twitter, flirting with Michael 
       Fassbender, or expertly stalking the cast of "Hamilton," 
       Retta’s unique voice and refreshing honesty will make you 
       laugh, cry, and laugh so hard you’ll cry.  Her eponymous 
       sitcom might not have happened yet, but by the end of So 
       Close to Being the Sh*t, you’ll be rooting for Retta to be
       the next one-named wonder to take over your television. 
       And she just might inspire you to reach for the stars, 
       too.
