When You Lie About Your Age, the Terrorists Win

Praise

“This book reflects the wise, knowing person Carol has become, and the hysterically funny one she always was. I recommend it highly – its strong enough for a man…but made for a woman. I couldn’t put it down.”—Bill Maher

“These essays have stirred in me a foreign, disgusting and heretofore dormant urge to hug someone, in this case the author. If I become human as a result of reading this, so help me God I will sue her for every dollar she makes from this profound, insightful, and hilarious book.”—Larry David

“I discovered Carol Leifer at an open mike night in the late 70’s on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.  It didn’t take me two seconds to realize how special her talent is.  (Two seconds, that’s how good I am, by the way).   But she really has one of the most uniquely hilarious minds of anyone I’ve ever met.  We have worked together on countless projects.  If you have never heard how she thinks, this book is the perfect introduction.”—Jerry Seinfeld

“Deeply honest, inspiring, and funny. This is a book about the unpredictability of life and finding yourself that is written by a very, very funny woman. Read this now before it’s made into a movie, so you can join me in saying, "I liked the book better!"
Trust me: I’m generally as accurate as Seinfeld. It’s really a winner.”—Garry Shandling

“Carol and I go way back. I’m not exactly sure what that means but we’ve known each other for a long time. Here’s what I know about Carol. She’s funny, she’s smart, she’s kind and she’s a good writer. You will find out all of those things for yourself when you read this book. I laughed, I cried, (but that’s because I leaned back laughing and hit my head on the wall). I think you’ll enjoy this book as much as I did-except for the part when I hit my head.”—Ellen DeGeneres

“You’ll love this. It’s the best book ever.”—Chris Rock

“Carol Leifer is one of the most sane funny folks around—her book is full of love light and laughter. Her take on the world will make u smile and warm your heart. So buy it already.”—Rosie O’Donnell

“Carol Leifer’s book is the perfect antidote to aging. If laughter is the best medicine, then her writing is an amazing beauty treatment. It’s like a clay mask for the soul.”—Margaret Cho
