Book Twentytwo: Half Empty

Half Empty, David Rakoff

Oh David Rakoff. How the world will miss you. I'm not sure if it's that this was less funny than his past books, or that my ability to laugh while reading it was tainted by the fact that he just passed away. But really, laughs aren't the main draw here anyway. There's some lovely writing, some fascinating topics, and some real heartfelt human stuff.
