This is our book for the April discussion. It is one of my favorite books of all time - I'm not sure if that says something bad about my tastes or what, but her humor really clicks with me. You might not be able to relate with some stories if, say, you've never owned a pet, but there are several "essays" in here about more universal things like childhood, responsibility, and human emotion. She describes depression in the most relatable way I have ever read - and it's still funny, too.

Here is a link to her blog. Donna, take note! You can read many of the stories in the book on the website here - just take a look at the "Best of" section on the right. If you can't get enough of the book, just look here for more of her brand of humor.

Goodreads. My mother's health has had all my attention this last month. I did look at the website you suggested and look forward to tonight's conversation about "Hyperbole and a Half." see you tonight !
