I finished Christopher Buckley's memoir...

...last night, Losing Mum and Pup, and it was really funny. I couldn't put it down! I don't want to give away too much of it, but apparently his father had an odd habit of urinating in public. Yes, that Bill Buckley. It even extended to peeing out the open door of a moving vehicle! Christopher has an excellent writing style and I really should have read it with a dictionary handy, although it would have been more of a nuisance as I would have had to consult it every third word. And that doesn't even count all the foreign phrases! But he's a great writer and you can usually find him in the Daily Beast.
