I really like Santaland Diaries (which I've heard him read a couple of times on This American Life, but the rest of the stories in this collection aren't quite up to par (I'm writing this with one story left to go). I've got to say, though, that this was the perfect book to have on hand during a holiday trip. It was easy to make it through between naps and meals on my flight to Europe and was really quite entertaining throughout (he's a sick, sick man; if you're a Sedaris fan, you already know this).
