augusten burroughs.

i know im a little behind because he was really hip about a year or two ago. i just read magical thinking and now i want to read "running with scissors." he's a bit cocky and arrogant even in his self deprication, but i still like him. he relies too much on his vanity being a flaw at least in his most recent book.

he has a new book coming out next month called "possible side effects."

and is "sellevision" worth reading?

His life is fucking fascinating, I love him. It's probably best to read his books in order, so read Running With Scissors before you read Dry.

Sellevision is worth reading for sure, but I find his memoirs more fascinating and absorbing. He's brilliant. Thanks for telling me he has a new book coming out, I'm so glad.
