I got probably halfway through this before realizing that it was not a fictional novel. The writing is funny, if a little depressing, and the tale will stick with you for some time.

This is a fun and funny book about Ayres experience living in LA leading up to and into the housing collapse. He does a great job making fun of himself which is a good quality. And you can stop to examine your own ridiculous excesses and follies when you know his are at least as bad. It's not earth-shattering but it is fun to read.
