Publisher: Little, Brown, and Company Page Count: 272 Nonfiction Genre: Memoir, Essays, Comedy, Short Stories Dates Read: September 20-22, 2015 Summary David Sedaris shares a series of short stories of his life, starting from the young age when his father decided they should have a family band, and forced Sedaris to take guitar lessons. Review Why does everyone love this book? I've had it sitting on my shelf for years knowing that one day I would finally get to it. So many of my friends loved it, so that had to mean something. What did I miss? I was bored reading this, and I have never cared so little about another human being's life. I found Sedaris's stories to be more sad and pathetic that I found them to be funny. It was dull and uninteresting - Like Jan Brady screaming "LOOK AT ME!!!!".
