Just finished Augusten Burroughs' childhood memoir Running with Scissors, and I'm now moving on to Dry, his memoir of his twenties.
Running with Scissors is bizarre yet believable and affirms the fact that life is sometimes just like driving an obstacle course around all the weirdos and misfortunes thrown in the path. That trust is optional, growing up is difficult, and most people have almost no insight into the human condition. Burroughs being an exception to that, of course.
Hoping for the best with the next installment.
