Microthrills: True Stories From A Life Of Small Highs, by Wendy Spero
From the picture of the procreating ladybugs on the cover I thought his book of short stories would be fun & I was totally right.
The stories of her sex therapist mother and hairy funny grandfather are well written and hilarious. Some things I wouldn't have believed if there weren't pictures, really wait until you see her grandpa, you'll laugh out loud.
Perfect for beach or vacation because it's short stories, this book is for any lovers of David Sedaris, Laurie Notaro, or Jen Lancaster.
