I didn't know Craig Ferguson had written a second -- into the libro.fm cart it goes!

I think I heard about American on Purpose here, too. Thanks, DCUM!

Anything by David Sedaris or Augusten Burroughs

Bossypants by Tina Fey is older but really good and very funny

Into Thin Air by John Krakauer (I love all of his books)

As You Wish by Cary Elwes - I am a huge fan of his and I loved this book, plus his accent is delicious

The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo by Amy Schumer if you like her

I thought this was terrible on audio. So depressing and uninspired. I know it's not an upbeat story, but the narrator's voice was monotone.
