Looking for book suggestions.
Permalink Closed

I am looking for some light reading, preferably something funny. I have read all the shopaholic books. I would love something a little wicked, sarcastic, or downright evil.


TIA!

have you ever read Laurie Notaro? I keep meaning to buy her books and never do, but the last one looks really funny. She used to write a column for the newspaper here and she's effin' hilarious.


I Love Everybody (and Other Atrocious Lies) : True Tales of a Loudmouth Girl


this book is a collection of her columns:


The Idiot Girls' Action-Adventure Club : True Tales from a Magnificent and Clumsy Life


And if you want REAL evil, this is what I am reading after I finish Atonement:


The United States of Wal-Mart

Any David Sedaris books.  He is so hilarious.  I particularly love Me Talk Pretty One Day and Naked.  Me Talk Pretty One DayNaked

I am currently reading "Bitter is the New Black : Confessions of a Condescending, Egomaniacal, Self-Centered Smartass,Or, Why You Should Never Carry A Prada Bag to the Unemployment Office" by Jen Lancaster - It is awesome. It is like the shopaholics series except this one is a gal's real life! She started a blog and it turned into a book. I cannot put it down! It is a must read for all of us!

I haven't started the ST Book Club book yet because i picked this one up instead.
