I’ve been dedicating my life the past 2 weeks to “Youth in Revolt” – the very entertaining book that was recently made into a movie with Michael Cera. It’s so engaging I’m actually listening to the book on tape, then syncing up with the book when I can’t be in my car. 21 CDs be damned, I’m almost done with it. I’m looking forward to reading the other diaries that C.D. Payne has written as well. I also enjoy the local references, as it takes place in Northern California.
