Praise for Angry Conversations
"
God in couples counseling? Sounds sacrilegious, but in the adept hands of comedian, writer and actress Isaacs, it’s a success. Isaacs moves easily between recounting her life story and her counseling sessions ... Isaacs readily admits to being snarky, but she’s honest about her quest and its conclusion: “I saw now all too clearly why I had married God: for the power and the glory. For the money.” Isaacs goes on a Job-like search for explanations from God, but finds the problem to be her. She’s funny, biting, earthy and brilliant." — Publisher's Weekly
"My mom always says it takes an exceptionally bright mind to be funny. This book is what happens when a comedian writes a spiritual memoir. Susan can articulate moments that defy words, say things most of us wouldn't dare to say, and make you ache deep down and laugh out loud." — Kristin Armstrong, author of Happily Ever After, Work In Progress
"If King David were a woman, and were funny, he'd be Susan Isaacs. And the thing about this book is: it surprises you. There are lines in it you won't see coming. You'll be handing this book to somebody else about a month from now, thinking 'maybe this will help them understand me.' You'll do that because it helped you understand yourself first." — Donald Miller, author of Blue Like Jazz.
"Susan's brilliant comic idea of taking God to couples therapy is a terrific framework for the story of her personal journey of faith."
— Jim Gaffigan, actor/comedian, Beyond The Pale
"Face it, folks, the church is made up of messed-up people all trying to deal with life. I appreciate writers like Susan who creatively face their issues with honesty and humor. Angry Conversations is a really fun read!" — Tony Hale, Actor
“Angry Conversations with God 
is snippy and snarky, and a deeply touching, powerful book of hope! Isaacs has the courage to write what we’ve all felt at times in our spiritual journeys. This candid, thoughtful, laugh-out-loud funny book will help you realize you’re not alone! So bring it on and get real—God can take it!” — Nancy Stafford, actor speaker author (The Wonder of His Love and Beauty by the Book)
"A brilliantly funny, fearlessly honest, and deeply moving account of one woman's search for God and man, not necessarily in that order. Fun fact: There's more truth in this book than there are lies in James Frey's A Million Little Pieces." — Eric Metaxas, NYTimes bestselling author of Amazing Grace: the William Wilberforce Story, It's Time To Sleep My Love, and many other titles too long to type.
For years Christians have claimed they felt married to God; so if you are mad at God, so doesn’t it sound reasonable to take him to counseling? What Susan reveals from those counseling sessions is worth every moment you spend in her book; Angry Conversations with God is Girl Meets God meets The Shack. Curl up on your couch and devour every page! — Victorya Rogers, A Man To Keep
"Susan's story is like an evening of great improv. You'll laugh until you cry, and sometimes you'll simply cry. May Susan's courageous book be a balm to all readers who look beyond their lost dreams and listen for God's voice." — Doug LeBlanc, contributing writer to Christianity Today, getreligion.org
