Great book! I have two Masters degrees and each time I get one Laurie's writing gets better. I'm seriously thinking of getting my PhD because then Laurie will probably win a Pulitzer....or the Nobel! Sadly for Laurie, I'm old and my brain cells are starting to wither, so another degree is unlikely. But really, this book is just as good as all her previous ones, if not better. Laurie has absolutely no problem with telling humiliating stories about herself for the sake of mankind. For a long time, I've wished Laurie was my friend, because I know we'd totally be BFFs (she even "liked" one of my statuses on Facebook a couple years ago!), but after reading about the kind of houseguest she is, she'll have to be one those rare BFFs that you can't take anywhere overnight or host in your home for the weekend. But I'm sure she'll be cool with that, because we'll have so much fun doing other stuff! So read this book, or do what I did, and listen to it. It's narrated by Laurie herself, so it's almost like she's telling you the stories herself!
