Barrel Fever by David Sedaris
3.0

I'm officially in love with David Sedaris. I want to be him. Or at least friends with him. I would say this is my third favorite of his books, after When You are Engulfed in Flames and Me Talk Pretty One Day. While the other books contain essays, this one also has short stories. They are very over the top, which is great, but sometimes too much so? I do think that some parts are legitimately offensive, but that's just me. Overall, I really enjoy his style and I think it pushes me to think outside the box both as a reader and a writer.
