You know and love Rinny Perkins – performer, multidisciplinary artist, and writer – and coming this April 2023, you’ll have the perfect Rinny manifesto with her book NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO LIKE YOU.

A graphic collection of mini essays, that is both hilarious and heartwarming. Faturing funny, real reflections from experiences in her hometown of (Third Ward!) Houston, Texas to Los Angeles — Rinny traces her journey to understanding that whether through a friendship break-up or saving up for a Telfar bag, the only person who can truly validate us is ourselves.

With 1970s-inspired graphics like a “When To Quit Your Job” checklist and Microaggressions Bingo, Not Everyone’s Going to Like You is a long DM of affirmations from Rinny to herself on how to get through life. Her advice? Stop ignoring your intuition, ignore perfection, and leave them on read.
