the best reading is real reading. it's the truth, stuff that's really happening, has happened, or partially happened. following are guaranteed good reads for most humans. these stories fall into three simple categories: drugs/alcohol, insanity and sex.
ps. i would love to receive some recommendations along these lines. there can never be enough and the good ones aren't easy to find.
1. i'm the one that i want - margaret cho
2. a million little pieces - james frey
3. my friend leonard - james frey
4. running with scissors - augusten burroughs
5. dry - augusten burroughs
6. the basketball diaries - jim carroll
7. forced entries - jim carroll
8. a life ill-equipped for sex - jennifer lehr

10. prozac nation - elizabeth wurtzel

13. me talk pretty one day - david sedaris
14. dress your family in corduroy and denim - david sedaris
15. diary of a pretty lady - sandra bernhard
