This Is How: Proven Aid in Overcoming Shyness, Molestation, Fatness, Spinsterhood, Grief, Disease, Lushery, Decrepitude & More. For Young and Old Alike. by Augusten Burroughs

5.0

I needed this book in my life right now. While I don't necessarily agree with all the author's advice, I appreciate his realistic, snarky approach. While some of his points can seem shocking at first, they are thought provoking. His opinions are backed up by his personal experiences and observations, so it feels like you're getting advice from a friend. If you like his other books, you will enjoy this one as well. It's different than his typical essays, but still in the same style and voice.
