I Love You More Than You Know: Essays by Jonathan Ames
2.0
I like his novels more than his essays, and Bored to Death more than his novels and essays.
There are a couple of great essays in here, and there's a lot for me to identify with, esp. being a perverted writer who doesn't always like the way he thinks about women and constantly does things he regrets etc. But he hates smoke and likes trannies more than I do. He also is more entertained by shit and pimples. I'm not proud of the comparisons with Jonathan Ames (the non-Bored to Death version; I love the occasional Jason Schwartzman comparisons) that I get and make, esp. considering that what I do share in common makes me scared that maybe some day I will be as into shit and pimples as he is and will become annoyed by neighbours smoking in the morning, etc.
