Silver Screen Fiend: Learning About Life from an Addiction to Film by Patton Oswalt
4.0
I was originally going to read the printed version of this book, but due to my schedule I felt listening to it on audiobook would be wise and make the commute a little more bearable to work and class: And I was correct.
Not only did it make the drive short, it made me want to linger in my car to hear how Patton's anecdotes ended. I was almost late to work once when I just had to have '5 minutes more' in order to hear him out!
I also think that anyone entering any field of entertainment, or any college major in the various fields of entertainment, should read/listen to this book. It is honest and fair, but funny and vulnerable too.
Bonus: There is just something about the author narrating their own book!
