The Pleasure of My Company: A Novel | 
so-soI finished this yesterday (Week 3), but didn't have Wi-Fi in the airport. It's not as good as I remember it being (nor as good as I remember his other books being).
This is from my December TBR list for #WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious

I am having a hard time reading this one...but since it is so short I‘m going to go ahead a muscle my way through it.
Finished The Genius Plague (4 stars - a very good book. It took we a while to finish this one. Not because of the book but because of the craziness of my life right now.). And now on to the next one...The Pleasure Of My Company.
pickA jaunt that explores the adult life of Daniel Pecan Cambridge. Sure, Daniel's life is quirky. He sort of rolls through life until he decides to enter an essay contest. I throughly enjoyed this story. I won't tell more about it so that I don't spoil any details for anyone who reads this review. If you find yourself looking for a book that is easy to read and enjoyable, this might be what you're looking for.
pickI found out Steve Martin wrote a book and I had to sample one. Daniel was strange. Daniel was quirky yet fun. During certain situations, Daniel felt like me. Or at least I put myself into his encounters and thought, "Yep, that's probably what it'd be like for me too." The friends that accompanied him made the story even better — perfect additions to his "magic square."
Day Two- #allthebooksof2017 This was the shortest book I read this year at 163 pages. I can‘t recommend Steve Martins book enough. The are short, smart and funny.
Oh Steve, you kill me! 😂😂

Have any of my fellow Littens read this book? Would you recommend? Please let me know. ☺️
#fallintobooks When I think awkward I think Daniel Pecan Cambridge. This is one of my favorite Steve Martin characters. He barely leaves the house, has a lot of crazy quirks and wins the Most Average American essay contest. I highly recommend if you liked Don from the Rosie Project.
#anditsaugust Steve Martin has some amazing smart funny quick reads. Here are two of my favs😊

Amanda: "I was skeptical to read a book written by an actor but Steve Martin is funny, so I went for it. The main character is in his 30s, unemployed, and talks to his therapist every week. He's afraid of curbsides. Some of his social anxieties I relate to – like dealing with people. If someone is unwilling to listen, that makes someone very hard to deal with. I feel like a lot of people are not listening right now." #newyork
#marchintoreading Thanks to a little vacation time got some extra reading done this month. I loved them all 😊 but Steve Martins book may be my fav of the month.
pickLoved, loved this book ❤️❤️There were still many takers for the quiet heart. This gave me a little hope for maybe 🌈
Like there was much doubt. #bookobsessed #booktrovert
#recommendedby #mybookclub Daniel watches from his window as the world goes by, and his only relationships seem to be with people who barely know he exists. His fear of curbs, new friends and great word play make this a hilarious read.

She had destroyed whatever was between us by making a profound gaffe: She met me.
pickWell written and interesting and I was intrigued that Steve Martin could write so well. Also a very quick read
