Lust and Wonder.

Lust and Wonder is another memoir from Augusten Burroughs. It covers the period that follows his previous book Dry.

As in his other memoirs he puts the main focus on one aspect of his life during the time he writes about. In Lust and Wonder the focus is on his romantic relationships. In particular it looks at three significant relationships that he has been in along with his quest to find his true love. 

I haven't read anything by Augusten Burroughs for quite some time and I had forgotten how hysterically funny his work can be, there were absolutely some real 'lol' moments in this book.

I had also forgotten how brutally honest his accounts are. There are some uncomfortable and twisted incidents in this book that almost lay the author's soul too bare but it is written with a frankness that I admire, he tells everything both good and bad and reveals his faults and idiosyncrasies in a way that makes the reader feel connected to him and the situations he is facing.

Above all, Lust and Wonder is a brilliantly told romance. The author's vulnerability and uncertainty shows through and he does get the happy ending that he and the reader are hoping for.

Recommended.
