I love silly, ridiculous people and their stories and I’m sure this book is ideal for teenagers, but as a 35 year old woman very very little coming out of this book resonated with me.

Even with her ridiculousness, silly stories, and obsession with ranch dressing, she has an important message. I got this and Off with My Head: The Definitive Basic B*tch Handbook to Surviving Rock Bottom from the library, so we'll see if she has something more interesting to say after getting cancelled.

I started painting just this year due to the pandemic, having lots of free time, lots of extra anxiety, lots of it, so I started using art to distract myself —and through that I realized I have a true passion for art.I learned that I am definitely NLB (Next Level Basic) in some ways in life and not so much in others but as Stassi would want me to do. Embracing your basicness can actually make you a happier person for one simple reason—because it’s fun. Honestly, I’d have more respect for her if she actually embraced her “this is who I am and I don’t care what you think” mentality that she advises we all take, when it came to things that have consequences like politics and human decency.

Any declarative statement in this book is immediately followed by the caveat that if it’s not your thing, that’s fine too! Sure she is a confident girl trying to let other girls know how to be confident and assertive, but can you be any more annoying with it. This book is for everyone out there who is tired of pretending they would rather read War and Peace or see a Daniel Day-Lewis movie about sewing than watch a Saw marathon and drink a delicious but basic AF cocktail like a Kir Royale (nine parts champagne and one part crème de cassis, whatever that is.

And it's not a parody or a satire, or if it is, it failed, because it didn't make me laugh and it ended up getting so lost in its own joke that it became the joke. I'm a HUGE Vanderpump rules fan so for me I was going to read this regardless of the style or content of the book. There’s something for everyone under Schroeder’s big basic umbrella” (Elle) and in Next Level Basic, the reality star, podcast queen, and ranch dressing expert gives you hilarious and pointed lessons on how to have fun and celebrate yourself, with exclusive stories from her own life and on the set of Vanderpump Rules.It's not really self-help, because it's not really solving or fixing anything (except, maybe, distress at being white and basic?
