Isn’t She Great
A love
letter to female-led comedies brought to you with a touch of pink by
comedian, screenwriter and author, Elizabeth Teets
Released and published by Read Furiously
Based on Elizabeth Teets’s
program series called “Isn’t She Great” at the Hollywood Theater,
this anthology is a collection of the most beloved female-centric comedies and the audiences
who adore them. From 9 to 5 to Romy and Michele to the iconic Elle
Woods, the essays in this collection build on our devotion to these films and continue
the conversation around funny
women and how these characters have shaped so many talented writers.
Isn’t She Great is for anyone who loves movies and feels the glamour in pink. Cult cinema and film criticism will never be the same.

About Read Furiously:
In 2012, Read Furiously published its first title, the graphic novel series The MOTHER Principle. Today we dedicate our time and energies to publishing titles that offer a new perspective on the world through a roster of fascinating voices.
Our goal at Read Furiously is to create a new generation of readers (lovingly referred to as “Furious Readers”) who view reading as a necessity for this busy world. We believe that reading is more than performative - reading is an activity that brings people together to help us make sense of where we come from and where we are going. Every Read Furiously title is curated carefully to reflect these values.
With every title we publish, Read Furiously donates 5% of our net proceeds to various literacy programs and book-related charities, and we also invite our talented creators to do the same. We also work with Little Free Libraries and book donation programs throughout NJ. We understand that reading can be a form of activism and we take this responsibility very seriously.
Through our published titles and community efforts, Read Furiously recognizes that reading is a personal and social act. If we are successful in combining the two, being a Furious Reader will be another way we can change the world - one book at a time. We strive to celebrate diverse voices and encourage a sustainable reading journey.
