I have just finished reading Augusten's Burroughs latest novel 'Possible Side Effects' and I must say that the only side effects that I had to deal with were the constant flow of tears blurring my vision from laughing too much. The books was another great read from Augusten. For those who are fans of Running with Scissors you would know that the movie was just released. Yes, I am a fan but no, I have not yet seen the movie due to time constraints, but I definitely will be seeing it - maybe even this weekend. I just hope that the movie is as good as the book, but somehow I doubt that it will be. I saw a short preview via Amazon Fishbowl and my heart sunk just a little. I really doubt that I am going to be impressed with the actors/actresses chosen to play the key roles and am fearful that it will be a little too Hollywood-ish. Only time will tell...
