Life Among the Savages by Shirley Jackson

5.0

Hilarious! She writes with such aplomb about raising her kids. There are some absolutely perfect sections. One, called "Charles," I read in the form of a short story in a reading book in school, and it was just hilarious. And then she writes about one crazy night when the whole family was sick and ended up all switching sleeping places throughout the night, dragging along their blankets, drinks, etc. and then lost one blanket by the morning. It's just great.
