Running with Scissors?

Just finished reading it - LOVED IT!

Has anyone read any other books by Augusten?

Re: Running with Scissors?

I read all three - Scissors, Dry and Magical Thinking, I liked Magical Thinking best but enjoyed them all.

Re: Running with Scissors?

I read Dry and Running with Scissors. Loved them both but I think I preferred Dry. DH has read just about everything by Augusten Burroughs - he's a big fan.

Re: Running with Scissors?

I loved Running with Scissors but it was pretty graphic. Dry was good but I liked RWS better. I have to read Magical Thinking.

Re: Running with Scissors?

I read Dry and loved it. Never read the others, although I've always meant to.

It was okay - I am done with the memoirs for a while.

Re: Running with Scissors?

Loved it...so much so that I've since read Dry, Magical Thinking, Sellevision (his fiction work/first book) and am just finishing up Possible Side Effects.

I laugh out loud with him - much like David Sedaris (though I grew tired of him).

I thought Dry was better than RWS. Magical Thinking was just ok.

I have Magical Thinking if anyone wants it.

Re: Running with Scissors?

I love this book, I have also read Dry. I really like both books. I will have to run out and get magical thinking.
