Ariel's Sunday Times columns:
Ariel on crying babies in public: "Last Sunday I was enjoying a peaceful breakfast in a café in Notting Hill when an infant began howling. It was like a car alarm had gone off. Everyone in the restaurant was disturbed by it. Even the other babies, the quiet ones, were annoyed."
 
Ariel on frugalistas: "Unless you’re a retired rebel guerilla fighter in Nicaragua, anything with ‘ista’ at the end of it can’t be good."
 
Ariel on change: "I’m not a big fan of change. Even if something isn’t working I can probably live with it . Especially when it comes to relationships. No need for uncharted territory when there’s a safe and familiar environment of misery. Why change when you can complain?"

Quotes

“Let me cut to the chase (a phrase Ariel Leve hates, by the way): this is a funny, smart, delightfully cranky book about everything from Facebook to dating to Angelina Jolie’s dinner conversation. If Fran Leibowitz didn’t have her famed case of writer’s block, It Could Be Worse, You Could Be Me is the kind of book she might publish.”
 


- A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically
 
“Ariel Leve is the love child of David Sedaris and Fran Leibowitz. An original and funny voice. She is painfully self-aware and has a self-deprecating look at life. The flip side of Sex and The City. Insightful and sharp—this is a very funny book written by a woman who knows how to laugh at herself and her insecurities.”


- Joan Rivers
"Ariel Leve is brilliant and funny and the only other person I know without an oven. Buy this book and keep it close."


- Bill Nighy
