Would you like to read some book reviews? Check out the New York Times Review of Books . You might have to register to gain access but there is no charge. There is an interesting article there about the memoir James Frey wrote called "A million little pieces". Apparently Mr. Frey made up things about his past to make his book more interesting. Just how important is the truth in a memoir? The Whitehall Library has a copy of this book so maybe you should read it and make up your own mind on the importance of truth.
If you are looking for a way out of the hole your life has become you might want to read Haven Kimmel's new memoir, "She got up off the couch : and other heroic acts from Mooreland, Indiana". Haven introduced us to her life in "A girl named Zippy", which I just read and enjoyed very much. It's not your usual tale of dysfunction and despair, rather dysfunction and a verve for living.
