Title: disturbing...yet funny?
Review: I shared this book with a couple of my friends because I wanted them to tell me what I thought of it. While they enjoyed the book, I think they found it pretty disturbing. It's a response to a crazy childhood and dissillusionment with people in a position of trust. There were moments where I was laughing out loud, and the next hoping it was fiction yet wondering where someone could imagine such whackiness.There are very few people that I would recommend this book to, not because the book isn't well-written, but because I don't know how some people would react to Augusten's world. The great thing about this book is that it is written with dry humour instead of the pathetic "poor me", parent-blaming BS that I have to listen to from other individuals.
Is the review positive or negative?
