recommended for: everyone!!!
status: Read in August, 2007

yet another memoir of sorts... but this one is inspirational and simply hysterical.
we follow a young woman realizing her identity and also coming to terms with her slightly off kilter family and her specific expectations from the world.
i have given this book to.. my mother, my sister, my friend danielle and a coworker mike... they have all loved it and even become inspired by it.
if you're in the mood to laugh out loud, here's a book that will have you cryin'!! david sedaris meets augusten borroughs. what more could you want.

655777 "david sedaris meets augusten burroughs..."-it's funny, I was just telling a friend of mine about this book and I said she was the "female equivilant of Augusten Burroughs."

I also laughed until I cried, especially the first third. I found the descriptions of her childhood probably the funniest stuff I have ever read in my life. Hopefully Kiss My Tiara is as entertaining.

I liked your review,thanks.
