I liked this book and everything, but was disappointed that is was more of a collection of stories as opposed to a full length book. Just felt like my time would have been better spent reading a novel or work of non-fiction rather than a bunch of scattered memories.

his story about their easter picnic, "big boy", got me laughing off my chair! i just had to let my friends read that part of the book, and it never failed to make them laugh off their chairs too!

Have you been bombarded by complete strangers who wanted to know, after you have written a review, and/or made comments expressing your opinion of a book, whether they should read this book? And it isn't that they took the time to see who you are, then ask in a note, no, they just spammed you and everyone else on Shelfari who has said book on shelf. Does this irriate you? If so, you can do something about it: you can contact either of the two Shelfari reps below, or better yet, you can contact both of them and ask them to please remove the new and annoying feature that allows this spamming!http://www.shelfari.com/amandahttp://www.shelfari.com/timothygray

Too true to be funny? Lady, if you can't laugh at the truth (for instance, the truth that we all get wrinkled with age), give it up.Let me refer you to The Onion, a satirical take on the truth. Go to theonion.com ...you'll find much not to laugh at there, too.

Yeah, you're so interesting you don't even have an avatar. Interesting.
He's right about the colors, ya know. Tar Heel powder blue? Oh, now that strikes fear into me, yes. And I'm from the city that Michael Jordan made famous.And WTF is so wrong with being gay? If that's a reason he's not so famous in NC, then I'd look seriously at how effed-up NC is, eh?

Gee, too bad.His writing isn't "unusual"; it's pretty standard Amerikan English. Filled with pretty standard (well, OK, maybe his mom's a bit out there, and younger brother Rooster is quite the redneck, but I've met types like his dad before, and certainly understand where his sisters are coming from) anecdotes from a loving if somewhat dysfunctional family.I guess you don't get out much, eh?

Yeah, folks, I'll amp up what Lyndsey K sez: if you don't enjoy potty humor, drug references or homos, why don't you just go away...to the Arctic or something!
