Right now I'm friends with a woman whose daughter suffers from Epilepsy. She let me borrow this new novel called A Great Place for a Seizure. Probably one of the best books I've read in a long time... in my life even! The author's name is Terry Tracy if anyone wants to check it out.
What are you reading?

I spent my college years in the company of Douglas Adams fans. HHG were our guidebooks. We took Christmas "Frost in a can" and put a huge 42 on my dorm room window, which faced the main area of campus. SO many people asked us what it meant, that we got the entire campus reading HHG.

I'm reading "Which Brings Me to You" by Steve Almond and Julianna Baggott, and I'm really enjoying it. I'm kind of surprised, because I've never heard of either of these authors. I just picked it up from the library fundraiser shelves on a whim.

I LOVE Augusten Burroughs, but I've yet to get ahold of any of Sedaris' books.

Stephen King is a strange author in that some of his books (Dolores, Rose Madder, Intensity) are incredibly engaging and well written while others (IT among others) seem like they were written by someone in Jr High. I haven't found another author whose writing style changes so dramatically from one book to the next. He's an enigma.
I had The Stand on my bookshelf for awhile. Then I read a long and disastrous review of it. I donated it to the library book sale after that.
I encourage you to read Augusten Burroughs' books. They are very much like Sedaris books. A little darker, but with a very similar sense of humor (except for A Wolf at the Table which is serious.) less

Read a book I downloaded free from Amazon about someone who got her Master's Degree at age 16 because her parents homeschooled her. All I could think of was they never seemed to have fun in that family (they went to school every day year round except Christmas and New Year's.) I decided I was glad I wasn't born into that family!
