I only really liked Jefferson vignette, with Kinsey and Dewey a close second and third. I was bored with the rest of the other vignettes. This book didn't focus so much on obsession in a positive light, instead focusing on obsessions and making them bad and looked down upon, because they were so great but this did this while being great. I do not think the author got his title right, I felt that after I read about people I was disappointed, not uplifted at the American Dream in force or at least that was what the author intended.
