The Long Journey Home: A Memoir Audiobook

" written by Augusten (Chris)Burroughs mother...Not sure I beleive everything she wrote..also dont know how she could write so clearly what was going on during her psychotic episodes..Just not real believable.. "

" I had to read this book, since I've read both her sons memoirs....but she is so psychotic it was sometimes unbelievable. I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It is mostly about all her psychotic episodes in different mental hospitals. "

" Nothing very interesting happens. Probably because I've read all of her son's books, I was most interested in the part of the story involving the psychiatrist. The writing is not boring. "

" I'll stick to Augusten. "

" Gave up, I don't think I can read about anymore disfunction "

" A good read. However, if you're reading this because you've read "Running With Scissors" prepare to be surprised, Robison tells a completely different story than her son, with only a few similarities. "

" Beautifully written. Her memoir reads like at poem at times.... "

" not really worth reading on its own, but a good alternative perspective on Augusten Burroughs' memoirs "

" A heart-wrenching book about a woman who struggled with mental illness, abuse, and physical illness, ncluding a severe stroke. Although I felt her writing style was articulate and lyrical, the book was too long and too sad for my taste. However, her story of survival is heroic indeed. "

" This book had some interesting parts, but mostly becuase I am familiar with Augusten Burroughs books. A lot of this story was uninteresting and seemed overly drawn out. I do enjoy hearing how the two authors disagree about their shared experiences. "

" just an awful book.boring,all over the place, "

" disappointed that she did not address her son's version of their life more specifically. "

" I couldn't finish the book, it was too depressing too crazy. Even though I had all the other books from this family, this was just too over the top to finish. "

" Did not finish the book. Rarely does this happen but I could not get through it. "

" I have concluded that she really is crazy and selfish, a difficult combination to have as your mother! "

" This is a memoir by a woman who has serious issues. I think she tries to address them directly, but she's a very unreliable narrator and after a while I began to feel claustrophobic. "
