Hillariously funny - [17 Mar 2010]
Great book, easy read and very funny. Augusten really milks his crazy family and chaotic life, and I'm glad he sees the humor behind the madness.

If You Hate Short Stories, Then Read This - [15 Feb 2010]
This is the perfect book for people who thought they hated short stories. I prefer novels, myself, but after I read Dry I thought Burroughs was so good I'd get everything he wrote, so I did. Now when I can't quite face starting a new book, or cracking...

Entertaining At Times - [17 Jun 2009]
I wouldn't say that this collection of essays was bad. As a matter of fact, there were some very funny moments, a few touching moments, and some moments that made me cringe. I agree with some of the feedback that the plot lines are for the most part very...

I love this kind of writing - [12 Jun 2009]
I had a bad nosebleed in a plane once too, so I feel for Augustan! In my case, I was just a small kid though and it stopped bleeding soon and wasn't as bad and embarrassing as his. What a witty and hilarious writer. I'm amazed by the brilliantly witty...
