Ok, So While Not Exactly Light Reading.....

...A Bright Red Scream: Self Mutilation and The Language Of Pain was a great book. I've started and stopped it over the last few years multiple times, and am pleased to say that after Project Runway, i was able to complete it and am better for it. A non-fiction book that talks about cutters and self-mutilation, I found it to be highly interesting, disturbing and informative. (And while not a cutter myself, I find the behavior fascinating and hope that by reading the book, I may be able to help potential clients I have in the future by being a bit more informed.)
But now I have all these other books I've bought over the years and don't know what one to start next. (Unlike Taffy, who reads 14 books at once, I can only read one book at a time, and won't start a new book until I finish the my current one.) Here are some of the books sitting on my shelf whispering to me at night...."Read me! Read me!"
Thoughts on what I should start first?!?

I recommend When You Are Engulfed in Flames. We had a chance to see David this summer he was brilliant!

I got the David Sedaris book when it first came out and still haven't found the time to sit down with it. That's my pick.

I read Kevin Smith's book and it was entertaining. I love Sedaris. You have a bunch of good reads to do :)
