  This book is quite funny, but I did feel like it had it's weak moments. A few of the stories felt pointless and maybe a bit forced. The ones that are good, though, are really really good.

  The title is very catchy. Well, some stories were pointless, some of them were ok, some ones were good enough. Probably I chose the wrong book, I don't wanna give up on this author!

  Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim

  This book was quite enjoyable. The funniest stories are those concerning Sedaris's delightfully dysfunctional family. I certainly plan to read more books by this author.
