by Lianna Kong and it was literally hard for me to set down before completing. My husband got a kick out of how much it was making me laugh as well as himself crack up.
Lianna started collecting people's quirks, and compulsions in the form of the blog called, "I am Neurotic" after realizing her personal 'bathroom stage fright' behavior along with her friend not wanting to touch cotton balls, and another friend's bizarre movie going habits. The website turned book, "I Am Neurotic: (and so are you)
" published by Harper Collins is a perfect blend of anonymously confessed habits and tendencies coupled with staged photographs that make it delightfully hilarious to peruse. The intent of her website and book is to show people that they are not alone in their personal neuroses. This book is a true winner, the funniest one I have read in ages. It comes out October 13th and you can pre-order it here.
After I finished the book, I had to ask people around me what their neurotic tendencies were. The most humorous one was from my brother who said, since he was little when he puts food in the microwave he pretends it is a time bomb and gets it out right before the timer goes off.
So, I want to ask you readers -- what are your quirks? What do you do that is neurotic? As for me, I can't sleep with socks on, and I have to leave the room when I hear the sound of someone scratching their dry skin.
