Hollywood starlet Mindy Kaling Kaling shares her ongoing, laugh-out-loud journey to find contentment and excitement in her adult life.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this hilarious instant classic, the creator of The Mindy Project and Never Have I Ever invites readers on a tour of her life and her unscientific observations on romance, friendship, and Hollywood. “[Kaling is] like Tina Fey’s cool little sister. Or perhaps . . . the next Nora Ephron.”—The New York Times Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals, a timid chubster afraid of her own bike, a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright, and, finally, a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this, and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?” Perhaps you want to know what Mindy thinks makes a great best friend (someone who will fill your prescription in the middle of the night), or what makes a great guy (one who is aware of all elderly people in any room at any time and acts accordingly), or what is the perfect amount of fame (so famous you can never get convicted of murder in a court of law), or how to maintain a trim figure (you will not find that information in these pages). If so, you’ve come to the right book, mostly! With several conveniently placed stopping points for you to run errands and make phone calls, Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? proves that Mindy Kaling really is just a Girl Next Door—not so much literally anywhere in the continental United States, but definitely if you live in India or Sri Lanka. Praise for Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? “Where have you been all our lives, Mindy?”—Glamour “Who wouldn’t want to hang out with Mindy Kaling? . . . [Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?] is like a mash note to comedy nerds.”—Time Out New York “Very funny.”—Boston Globe

MATT & BEN depicts its Hollywood golden boys ¿ before J-Lo, before Gwyneth, before ¿Project Greenlight,¿ before Oscar¿before anyone actually gave a damn. When the screenplay for Good Will Hunting drops mysteriously from the heavens, the boys realize they¿re being tested by a Higher Power.

"Based on her New York Times bestselling book, Mindy discusses 50 of her favorite topics, with accompanying questions to get you talking about things that really matter."--Container.

Mindy Kaling viveu muitas vidas: a filha obediente de profissionais liberais imigrantes, uma gordinha tímida com medo de bicicleta e, por fim, roteirista e atriz de comédias propensa a puxar briga com os amigos e colegas de trabalho usando a frase: "Posso dizer só mais uma coisa a respeito disso, e prometo calar a boca?". Talvez você queira saber o que Mindy considera necessário para ser uma melhor amiga maravilhosa (alguém que vá comprar remédio para você no meio da noite) ou um cara maravilhoso (alguém que tenha noção de que há pessoas mais velhas no recinto e aja de acordo), ou qual a dose perfeita de fama (ser tão famoso que você nunca seja condenado por assassinato num tribunal), ou como manter uma silhueta elegante (você não vai achar essa informação aqui). Se o seu caso é esse, você basicamente chegou ao livro certo! Em Todo mundo foi convidado, menos eu?, Mindy Kaling convida os leitores para uma turnê por sua vida e suas observações não científicas sobre romance, amizade e Hollywood, com vários pontos de parada convenientemente situados para você cuidar das suas coisas e dar telefonemas. Mindy Kaling é uma legítima Garota da Porta ao Lado - não tanto de algum lugar nos Estados Unidos continentais, mas definitivamente se você vive na Índia ou no Sri Lanka.
