I read his new book, Downtown Owl, last week, and I was super excited for it....but...I wasn't that impressed with it.

I normally LOVE his stuff.

Thoughts?

oh yeah i was wondering how he'd do with a novel.

i've only read killing yourself to live. i liked it pretty well. i can definitely see how he wouldn't be such a great fiction writer, though. what didn't you like about it?

DAMNIT i JUST got back from the bookstore and I wanted Killing Yourself to Live so bad but they did not have it, I harassed like 5 clerks for it.

Then I asked for Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs and guess what they did not have it.



I really wanted to read those books.

I loved both those books. 'Sex, drugs & cocoa Puffs' had a few dodgy chapters that I didn't care less about though.
'Killing Yourself To Live' is one of my favourite books ever though. I don't know. I just really enjoyed reading it, and could relate to the poor douche lots.
Which other books of his should I check out?

Yeah, I just ordered Killing Yourself to Live. I'm very eager.

When I asked the clerks there the people in the line looked at me upon hearing the title of the book. They looked concerned/horrified
