Right On

I guess that we will probably all agree that "Possible Side Effects" is a fun and funny novel. Although I found that Augusten's stories were really over the top, there was something about them that reminded me of myself. I mean, I have never been an alcoholic and I have never been addicted to Nicorette gum or McDonald's. But, I have made many impulsive decisions. My favorite part of the book was the entire section about the dogs. I laughed reading that entire section. I hated that he drank so much, but that was him finally being honest with the fact that he made some mistakes! I was particularly stressed out with how messy his apartment was, and I didn't care for him being locked out of his apartment. I think that I will read, "A Wolf at the Table" at some point and I will rent and watch, "Running with Scissors." I hope that you found this book to be interesting.
