5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully chuckley humor. Makes me smile., June 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: I May Not Be Totally Perfect, but Parts of Me Are Excellent, and Other Brilliant Thoughts (Paperback)

This book is very humorous. It brings to mind many of the bits of life I have lived. The best part is that it is not isolated issues. In addition, the sketches add a great deal to the total humor. I just happened to come across it in the library. Such a treat. Thank you for brightening my days.

This review is from: I may not be totally perfect, but parts of me are excellent, and other brilliant thoughts

I have had very depressed and/or bitter patients who break out laughing in the reception room after 3-5 minutes of reading this book. I mean tears coming out in a cathartic relief.
My own "Ashleigh Brilliant" is:
"I like you so much I miss you even when I'm with you".
