Silver Screen Fiend: Learning About Life from an Addiction to Film by Patton Oswalt

4.0

As an addict of a different kind (to writing! nothing that's going to kill me) some of the revelations Patton Oswalt came to as he was wrestling free of his film addiction struck me hard in the "yikes, my habit is unhealthy and I need to change" kind of way. I was only expecting to be amused by this book, not to have it go for my throat like that. But I guess you never anticipate the way things you need to hear are going to arrive, and in a book by one of my favorite people on this godforsaken planet's not a bad way.
