magical thinking by augusten burroughs
magical thinking is a psycholigal mental health term that means a person believes they have more influence over a situation than they in reality have. like the train is gonna arrive on time because i want it to. anyway its just a rambling bunch of family stories and observations from a very funny man. autobiographical. its the same man who wrote running with sissors and dry, which were also his autobiographies about different life points. this fills in the gaps with cool stories but i dont think if you never read those books that you'd be lost. just entertained.
