I always really enjoy David Sedaris’s writing, he can hop between sensitive to dry to indignant in seconds and it’ll all make me laugh. 
While I did find myself pulling away from certain chapters I enjoy reading about someone who lives a life different than myself, after all that’s often the reason why I read something. I simply enjoy the way he thinks, even if he comes to different conclusions than myself.

I found some moments within his stories about his family to be apt and funny, but, by and large, this is a deeply unfunny work that feels increasingly out of touch with reality as each story goes by. And that's without comparing it to what I remember of his earlier works.
