A.H.W.O.S.G. - by Tommy

After sitting on my self for about two years I've finally gotten around to reading A Heartbreaking Work of Straggering Genius. When you start packing you find all sorts of crap. Anyway...I just got through the Real World stuff and found it quite interesting. I liked how he turned pop culture trash (the Real World, which I love) into different pop culture trash (A.H.W.O.S.G. which I am also loving). I really wish I had some sort of insight to share on this point but I do not. Good day.

I really think this means we can't be friends anymore. Please return my promise ring.

Just finished the book. I found all the magazine stuff really boring. Actually I found most of the story pretty boring. I did like his voice and personality, which I thought really shined through. I think it got a little too much praise. Overall I found it a very so-so read.

I just picked up Oh The Glory of It All by another McSweeney, Sean Wilsey, and hope I like it more than this one.
