    You must try this book. You'll love it. You'll sacrifice nights of sleep just to get through it. It's David Sedaris' best book in my opinion with "Holidays on Ice" coming in as a close 2nd. If you're not familiar with David Sedaris, then watch this youtube link to get a sense of his humor. He reads his own books on CD. It's the best way to enjoy his stuff because he delivers each line and tells the story so well.

    David Sedaris has a gift for taking everyday occurrences and making them hilarious and entertaining.

    I adore David Sedaris's books. This one was okay, but it didn't live up to my expectations. The essays were not nearly as funny and entertaining as Me Talk Pretty One Day or Dress Your Family in Corderoy and Denim. If you're going to try one of his books, I'd recommend one of his earlier ones.

    David Sedaris is my favorite author of all time. If you get a chance to see him in person, please do yourself the favor and pay whatever the asking price is... it is worth it.

    I loved the stories and laughed out loud a lot. That's why I read Sedaris and he never disappoints. I don't think this is his best collection of stories, but still very good.

    David gets a bit softer with age...and he finally quit smoking.

    I dabbled in writing myself and found myself inspired to get back into it when I read this this summer.
