    I am currently reading I Hate Myselfie‚ a biography written by Shane Dawson.. There are two hundred twenty-four pages in this book. According to a review on Amazon‚ “Love this book. Shane is a hilarious‚ albeit slightly demented‚ freaking genius!!! His stories are always funny and always slightly embarrassing.” I think the intended audience for I Hate Myselfie would be ages 16-18+‚ and Shane Dawson fans. The reason I think this‚ is because there are so many inappropriate and hilarious scenarios.
