I saw the movie and I loved it. read the book, Loved it too!
This was a pretty moving, slightly disturbing, and overall heartwarming book. I do not understand all the descriptions, blurbs, reviews, etc. calling it “comic” or “funny.” Did not see that at all. You've got one seriously messed up guy coming to grips with his breakdown, the events that have transpired in his/his family's/everyone's life following that, and his early bumbling (and they'd have to be) steps to put his life back together. Gripping read, yes. But funny? No.
