The Best of Me by David Sedaris
3.0
3.5 stars
I have always been a fan of this author, except when he writes fiction.

BUT when he writes about his life, his family, and his little obsessions I cannot help but smile and at times laugh out loud.
This is a compilation of his best work through the years and, unfortunately for me, it also included some of his fictional stories. But luckily most of this compilation consist of essays about his family mixed with a few stand-up comedy recordings.
There is also a really good interview with the author at the end which I found very insightful.
If you are a fan of David Sedaris reading this will be a no brainer and if you have ever heard him narrate his own stories you will know why you must get this on audio.
A good choice for the end of the year when you need to escape into laughter.
