Helpful Score: 1

Not as good as Running with Scissors. The author is basing his whole career on exposing his unconventional family. I enjoyed his first couple books, but can't help but wonder what his parents think of all this. And what my kids will say about me when I am gone. Will they trumpet my foibles to the public? That would hurt. I tried to love them and raise them right, but sometimes they see otherwise. I wonder if Augusten's parents feel like they tried to raise him right. They were deeply flawed, but how could they help being who they are?
