![]() ![]() And now that I’ve read it, I’m glad I started with this one.įrom the start, Crosley digs right into a scene most can relate to, even though it’s set on a quintessential New York City street. ![]() ![]() Yet, the only Crosley book the store had was Look Alive Out There. I’ve already read a few of those essays and found myself laughing aloud in the bookstore. When I first picked up this book, I was actually looking for Crosley’s first essay collection, which came out in 2008, I Was Told There’d Be Cake. Look Alive Out There is a hilarious and at times strikingly tender collection of essays written about life in New York City, inexperienced world traveling, and other odd experiences that writing has gotten her into. Sloane Crosley is this person, but in author form (and probably living a cooler life). Re-readability: I hope to come back to this collection at some point. “I think by now we can all agree that the foundation of world travel goes something like “Bring a cardigan.” Sloane Crosley ![]()
