fun fact: Running with Scissors is our new lowest-rated book!


Let’s be honest and to the point: Running with Scissors, the “memoir” by Augusten Burroughs, is about as enjoyable as cutting off your toe with rusty hacksaw—that is to say, disgusting, cringe-inducing, and (under the majority of circumstances) pointless. Just as we would not recommend running with scissors, we do not recommend Running with Scissors.
