This summer I have attempted to clear out my “to read” list. So many books end up on there and I wanted to go back to the beginning and read the ones that have been on there for many years. David Sedaris’ Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls was one of these older selections. I used to really like David Sedaris, and while I am usually not a short story or essay kind of reader, I thought I would give this one a whirl since it gets such great and consistent reviews. While I enjoyed the book, and read it in about a day, most of it wasn’t as laugh-out-loud funny as I remember his other books to be. This would be a good choice to have on the bedside table to pick up in between longer selections as a change of pace.
