Laurie Notaro, and Why I'm Scared

So for sure, I live for her books. Now, here I have, sitting in front of me, my copy of her first work of fiction.

I can't open it.

I'm reading everything else in the stack, including some real trashy-type periodicals, and even some Jane Austen retellings, but for the life of me, I don't know what I'm scared of.

Yes I do. I fear that this book won't be as fun, biting, witty as all her memoirs. I really cannot be disappointed like that. Ever read something, that afterwards, you want to get back your wasted time? It sucks.

I have a long week at the beach coming up. I deserve one after the school year that I've had. I'll have the time then. I'll let you know how it went.
