   Summary: A hilarious Book!
This book caught me quite off guard. My sister had been telling me about this author David Sedaris for a while and she got me a copy of Naked for Christmas one year. It took me some time to read it and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I trust my sister's taste in books but I had never really read a humorous book before so I didn't know what to expect. Sedaris's quirky and self indulgent humor caught me completely off guard and I actually found myself laughing out loud, something I rarely do when reading. The thing that I love about his writing style too is that I find he has a good blend of mixing humor and very moving little portraits of people (mostly his beloved dysfunctional family) without becoming sappy or cliched. My only gripe with this book was that a few of the stories pace dragged a bit, so I couldn't give it a five star rating. But on the whole, it is a great title that should be picked up by those who want a good laugh.

   Summary: When You Are Engulfed in Flames
I cant wait for David's new book to come out in June! I love books like this and cant wait! I liked Mr Instability its the same as these books and just ordered Naked!

   Summary: The God of Essays
David Sedaris is the God of Essays. He is the most observant writer on the planet. His work is smart AND funny. I can't get enough of his dry wit.

   Summary: Quite funny!
This was my first time reading David Sedaris and I found it quite funny! I enjoyed the fact that each chapter is not exactly in chronological order, but instead centers around certain parts of his life. As memoirs go, this is one that I'll never forget and is akin to "Running With Scissors", though Sedaris tends to focus much more on the humor of his childhood. The vast amounts of positive reviews for this book speaks for itself and I look forward to reading more Sedaris in the future.
