Pop Culture, Self-Discovery, and Dark Humor

July 10, 2016 by ModernLove 3 Comments

So it’s been just over three months since my last review. Not coincidentally, I started my new job just over three months ago. While I love it, it is a little bit of a time suck. I’m keeping up on my reading, but after 8 hours of sitting in front of a computer and talking to people, the last thing I want to do is sit in front of a computer at home. It was going to take a very special book to get me out of my reviewing slump, and I found it. Dave Holmes’ memoir Party of One is a very special book.

    I can’t wait to read this. So glad you liked it!
    I’ve been a huge fan and cheerleader for Dave for ages. We went to college together, and while not best pals, have some good friends in common, so I’m always happy to hear of his successes. He is a smart, kind, funny, and all around good guy.

      This makes me so happy to hear. He seems like one of those wonderful, down-to-earth guys you just want to hang out with and talk to. I’m so glad how he comes across on paper matches who he is!
