Warning:

"No Inspirational Life Lessons Will Be Found In These Pages"

That is the disclaimer on the front cover of David Rakoff's "Half Empty".

"In this deeply funny memoir, David Rakoff examines his own life and the realities of our sunny, gosh-everyone-can-be-a-star contemporary culture. He finds that, pretty much as a universal rule, the best is not yet to come, adversity will triumph, justice will not be served, and your dreams won't come true."

I need to read this book.
