New York Times Bestselling Author of Nobody’s Cuter Than You
“Melanie Dale is funny, which is a trait that I highly value in a person. But, even more than that, she’s authentic. She isn’t afraid to say the things we all think, but wonder if they’re okay to say out loud. And that’s exactly what she does in It’s Not Fair. As she shares her own stories, you will laugh hard, nod your head and feel like maybe she’s looking right into your heart. You won’t regret the time you spend reading her words and will walk away relieved that someone understands exactly how you feel.”

“I love this book. Melanie has the rare gift of being able to encourage you through our hardest days while making you laugh until tears stream down your cheeks.”
Author of Giddy Up, Eunice and Home is Where My People Are
“It’s great to have friends who cheer you on when life is shiny and happy and Pinterest-y, but it’s invaluable, critical even, to have friends who cheer you on, empathize, and encourage when life takes a turn and looks nothing like you imagined. Fortunately for all of us, Melanie Dale is that friend. She’s hilarious, wise, and boasts an uncanny ability to relate Doctor Who to any situation (it’s one of the lesser known spiritual gifts). In It’s Not Fair, Melanie is at her very best because 1) she’s a crazy-gifted writer and 2) she gets it. Whatever your ‘it’ is. You’ll walk away from this book (which is delightful to read) feeling like you’ve found a new friend, and as an added bonus, you’ll also feel like you’ve found some new perspective that just so happens to be grounded in and covered with Truth. Melanie’s fancy like that.”

“Melanie never fails to make me laugh, and in It’s Not Fair, she turns her hilarity to one of life’s hardest subjects: suffering. Sharing her own stories of disappointment and challenge, she offers no easy answers but leads us on a path to hope, stopping for laughter along the way. She is the friend you want beside you when life gets hard.”
Creator of Lil Light O’ Mine and author of In This House, We Will Giggle
“Melanie Dale is the most hilarious, real, non-cheerleader, bible-believing, movie-quoting cheerleader you would want to stumble into during your life’s toughest struggles. She doesn’t try to give you the perfect answer or 10 tips to take away your pain–she simply reminds you that you aren’t alone. She shares her own junk through hilarious tales and sometimes tear-jerking tales and inspires us all to take one step to love the life we didn’t choose.”

“The best time for comic relief? When you’re going through a trial, of course! And only Melanie Dale, with her quick wit and big heart, can weave both hilarity and compassion into those hard seasons of life we all know in some form. It’s Not Fair is a funny, entertaining, and highly relevant read. Whatever your circumstances are, this book will remind you that laughter is medicine to the soul and hardships are always more bearable when you have a friend who understands.”

“Melanie Dale is as good as it gets. She’s a wise, tiny Buddha trapped in a comedic shell; the fearless, oh-so hilarious girlfriend we all wish we had. Luckily, we get to keep her on our nightstand now. (In the not creepy way.)”
