I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence

This mostly tongue-in-cheek (although occasionally serious) and very eclectic book on hospitality is terribly funny. A mixture of stories, suggestions, recipes, and random ideas - as someone who likes to daydream about crazily themed parties, it appealed to me, but it's very much a library book. I don't think I'd ever re-read it or actually use it.

Can I say I actually read this if I didn't finish it? Please take that into consideration if you are reading this review. I rarely stop reading a book, maybe four in my life-time. I couldn't do it. Amy Sedaris is funny, but I felt like this book was a few jokes replayed several times in a snarky, sarcastic tone. I expected a funny book about parties and hosting people, with a few tips I could actually use. I got a book telling me that if my friends are gay enough they will: know the pattern of the plate they broke, fabric they stained, etiquette for whatever we are doing, etc. And if it isn't working, by all means, add alcohol. Nudity is good too. The book could have been done in 30 pages and it would have been 3.5 stars for me.
