Augustan is very funny and deeply demented. I enjoyed this book quite a lot.

I'm not sure how I felt about this book. It was fine to read over breaks from school, and I liked that it was a bunch of different, easily digestible stories that were quirky and occasionally entertaining. However, some of them were kind of boring and none of them were as funny as I had anticipated (or as the book itself advertised). I feel like a lot of the "humor" came from making fun of people, which often crossed over into just being cruel, which I really did not like. I read Dry and Running with Scissors and enjoyed both of those, but this was definitely not on that same level of entertainment or heart. I don't think I'd recommend this book to anyone, to be entirely honest, just because Augusten Burroughs has much better books out there.
