This didn't really speak to me on a deep level, but I did enjoy the writing style and the reflections. I need to process this book a bit, because I'm unsure exactly what is missing in it for me.
Either way, it was enjoyable!

Recommended if you like: your mom, cobblestone streets, being understood, breaking the fourth wall, hailing a cab, cleaning up a mess, parting with things, remembering, self deprecating jokes, your haircut.
