(4) YA YouTube performer and standup comedian Hofstetter was bullied in high school by classmates, unnerved by family dysfunction, and socially insecure with the opposite sex. Structured to resemble the acts in a comedy show, his entertaining and honestly written (though sometimes repetitive) memoir mines his high school, synagogue youth group, and summer camp experiences for high and low points.
