I am reading this memoir by Augusten Burroughs and although I am not finished, in fact I am only a third of the way through, I want to HIGHLY RECOMMEND it. It's been out for a while and I was aware of it - it was a NYTimes bestseller yadda yadda and there is currently a defamation lawsuit happening due to it. My friend recently loaned it after she gulped it down joyously so...
black humor, lots of pyschobabble, a tale of a child neglect, true-ish.

That book is insane FB. Glad you are reading it. I read his next book Dry. . .that was more of a gut kick than Running. Also, not as much humor to liven it up.
I saw him speak at the 92nd street Y. Very interesting writer.
my same friend that loaned me this book just ordered dry so i am sure to read it also.
Dry seems more wrenching already, just that particular subject matter.
Does he always write memoirs I wonder?
never mind, i see that he has written some non-memoirs too. i like.
I actually picked up a copy of Magical Thinking but I have yet to read it.
are you staying home today with the sicks?
yeah. . .but I am dialed in and working. grrr. I want to sleep for awhile.
Go to sleep little Krix, close your peepers and shut out the bothersome tasks.
thanks Cheryl-Lynn. That's good advice.
