| 1. |  | Look Me in the Eye: My Life with Asperger's from Random House Audio Price: $21.86 Customer Review:  I found this book to be the boring, endless rattling of a cruel, arrogant and self absorbed young man who did not give a care about anyone but himself. Aspergers Syndrome does not put an appearance here. To those of you who finished the book, I take my hat off. I want my money back. |

| 2. |  | Running with Scissors: A Memoir from St. Martin's Paperbacks Price: $7.99 Customer Review: First off let me state that the first half of this book was well written. When you get to the middle of the book it goes straight downhill. I really didn't need to experience the vivid details of his first gay experience. I don't care in what fashion it has to do with this bizarre story, and if the... |

| 3. |  | A Wolf at the Table: A Memoir of My Father from St. Martin's Press Price: $16.47 Customer Review:  I know I should post this as a comment to some of the reviewers, but I do think a bit of reflection on what constitutes a valid critic and what does not might help all of us Amazon buyers/readers. I find it very disturbing and annoying to read so many negative critics on grounds such as: "this... |

| 4. |  | Dry: A Memoir from Picador Price: $11.20 Customer Review: I was addicted to reading this book. Finished it in a week. This is Burroughs BEST work. I have heard that a movie is in the works, as long as it isn't as horrible as 'Running with Scissors' was, then I can't wait to see how they do that. I can relate to Augusten in his career choices, making... |

| 5. |  | Possible Side Effects from Picador Price: $11.20 Customer Review:  Short stories or vignettes of this nature can be read in twenty minutes, out of order, one by one, all at once, etc. But do they have to wrap up with a concise moral lesson for the memoirist? Burroughs certainly writes with humor about his life; both the darker moments as well as the lighter.... |

| 6. |  | Sellevision: A Novel from Picador Price: $10.40 Customer Review: Having worked at a 'Sellevision'-esq place, although I won't get into specifics, I was rolling on the floor- laughing while reading this. It was so much like the real thing, it amazed me. I'm a HUGE Burroughs fan and wasn't too sure if a novel would be a good read by him, but I was wrong. Being able... |

| 7. |  | Magical Thinking: True Stories from Picador Price: $11.20 Customer Review: I've read "Running with Scissors" and "Dry," I thought these two books were too funny and the same goes for "Magical Thinking." If you don't get sarcasm or have a warped sense of humor this book is not for you. However, if you don't take things to literal you'll really enjoy this. It was very hard... |

| 10. | [no image] | Sellevision from Picador Customer Review: Of the other AB books I've read (both memoirs) they claimed to be funny, but they hit a bit close to home, so I didn't really laugh, but still had to read them. Couldn't put a single work of his down without a fight(at times had to go to work). Sellevision, on more than one occasion had me laughing... |
