I got more books!
-The Darwin Awards III: Survival of the Fittest
-Running With Scissors by Augusten Burroughs
-When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
As you can see, I enjoy memoirs and books about death. That's why I read Christopher Moore.
The Darwin Awards, first off, is a very well-written account of people who have died in ridiculous ways.
For example, one man tried to get the explosives from a grenade by sawing it in half--with a chainsaw.
As for Running With Scissors, I'm not sure how I feel about it. It's a great book, and I definitely recommend it, but is it funny? Some times it is, sure, but a lot of the time I really feel bad for Augusten.
When You Are Engulfed in Flames is a riot. I just love it. Words cannot describe it, other than that it's the best David Sedaris book ever.
I'd say you should get all of these.
