I read a great book of short stories this Thanksgiving break called – When the Nines Roll Over.

I’m looking for more of the same.

I really don’t care for fantasy and science fiction.

Suggestions?

Thanks!

A very funny, but older, collection of short stories is Dating Your Mom by Ian Frazier

I am currently reading Chipmonk Seeks Squirrel. It is amusing.

Anything by David Sedaris, but especially Me Talk Pretty One Day It’s very funny stuff about a guy that is an expatriate in France trying to learn the language as he goes about his daily life. Also by Sedaris is a great one about his family and up-bringing called Dress Your Family in Cordouroy and Denim

I love A Good Man is Hard to Find but you should know it’s southern gothic so it’s pretty dark stuff.

@Patrick_Bateman Yes, I should have guessed that when I found those razorblades in your wallet.
