When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris

3.0

I generally like to keep a book of short stories going for times when a quick story makes more sense than a whole book, and I've had this one going off and on for the whole year, mostly not enjoying it as much as I have some of his other stuff.
But last night I picked this up and I don't know if the final stories were funnier or my mood was better, but I laughed quite a bit and finished off the book this morning.
The last story about quitting smoking hides a nice little story about living in Japan for 3 months- my favorite story in the collection.
