    Another great one from Augusten. We were looking him up on the internet to see if he had an upcoming appearance and we found that Tegan Quin wrote a song for his book "A Wolf At The Table." Way cool!

    Burroughs has yet to disappoint men, and Magical Thinking was no exception. When I pick up one of his collections, I expect to laugh, gasp, and get a little emotional, which this book offers. It's highly inappropriate at times, but refreshing because it is so honest. I feel comfortable admitting my imperfections after reading his pieces! Freaks unite!

    more Sedari-esque. A good read if you like dry humor and memoir.
