"Cheeky, delightful . . . an uproarious gift book that’s sure to leave all kinds of collectors amused and chagrined."—Foreword Reviews

Ever wonder if your ceramic Buddha is silently judging your life choices? Or if your antique compass is dizzy from your lack of direction? In Tchotchkes and Their F*cked-Up Thoughts, your quirky collectibles finally speak their minds—and they are brutally honest.

This hilarious and highly giftable book brings together dark humor, colorful art, and a dash of existential dread. Perfect for collectors, design lovers, and fans of sarcastic humor, this is a must-have for anyone with a shelf full of curios and a dark sense of humor.

Inside you'll find:
• 55 full-color illustrations of inanimate objects with serious emotional baggage
• Snarky, witty, and surprisingly insightful one-liners from baubles, trinkets, and bric-à-brac
• A perfect companion to the hit humor book Houseplants and Their F*cked-Up Thoughts

Whether you’re looking for a quirky coffee table conversation starter, a white elephant gift, or a way to laugh at your own questionable decor, this book delivers collectible chaos and offbeat charm.

Get ready to laugh, cringe, and never look at your tchotchkes the same way again.
