Almost: A True Story is actually 52 stories that contain important life truths, gently mixed with outright lying, subtle exaggeration, and whatever else it takes to be interesting or useful for blackmailing someone. More importantly, the stories are short, fairly unrelated, and typically anonymous, which is perfect for a target audience suspected to be riddled with Attention Deficit Disorder and who will likely adapt these stories as their own false memories that can be shared with friends and therapists alike. Almost: A True Story is like a big magazine for people who want to impress their friends by pretending they are reading an actual book.
