by David Lebovitz
Amazon Price: $16.47


Customer Review: I loved this book, and was sad when it ended, it was so funny, he had me in tears. As for the redundancy and whining some reviewers mention, I don’t think they are connecting with the author’s particular self-depricating and ironic sense of humor.
