Augusten Burroughs [AUTHOR]

I would just start a thread for each book by Augusten, but I felt like they should all be encompassed together into one thread. Most notably, he published "Running with Scissors" which was a memoir about life with a mother struggling with mental illness and her psychiatrist. The book was turned into a movie that was actually very heartwarming towards the end.

Personally, though, my favorite work by him was "Magical Thinking," which is a collection of short memoir pieces. He tells little anecdotes such as the time he comes home and finds a mouse running around in his bathtub (after which he vows to only sponge bathe with Evian) and his multiple sexcapades with priests and other men of faith.

He's humorous, but also very insightful. I find him a large inspiration as I myself enjoy memoirs over any other genre.
