My Incredible NCAA Journey from the End of the Bench to the End of the Bench
My Incredible NCAA Journey from the End of the Bench to the End of the Bench

Review:As a former college athlete, the stories and the painting of the locker room picture sent me back to my playing days! Very funny stories, and his humor is very unique. Actually would've rather heard more stories rather than re-hash OSU's season in game-by-game detail. Quick read, and enjoyed my time reading! Read more

Trailer Trash, With a Girl's Name
Trailer Trash, With a Girl's Name

Review:“Trailer Trash, With a Girl's Name” by Stacey Roberts is a blast. I laughed, almost cried, and emotionally cringed at some of the situations that reminded me of events from my own life and upbringing. Calling Stacey a ‘Trooper’ is not word enough to commend him on surviving all that was thrown in his path, with kudos to the little bit that he managed to throw back. (Smile) For him to come out of it with an amazing sense of humor, well, that is just amazing because not everyone can do that. ... Read more

Everyone's a Aliebn When Ur a Aliebn Too: A Book

Review:Great read that really makes you think. Clever and incorporates some of his famous tweets. I've been following this guy on Twitter for about four years. Love his humor, but more than that, I love his attitude toward even the simplest ideas and ideals. Read more

The Mystic Arts of Erasing All Signs of Death - A Novel

Review:Overall, an entertaining read. I'm curious to see what happens to the characters. The characters, though, are CHARACTERS -- all eccentric and quirky. That gets tiresome pretty quickly. Or perhaps it just means that everyone I know is dry and dull. If you find it on sale, or someone offers to loan it to you, great. Otherwise, it's probably not worth full price. Read more

The World's Largest Man: A Memoir
The World's Largest Man: A Memoir

Review:I appreciate the theme but was ultimately distracted by the "hyperbolization" of various aspects essentially to support the humor of the incidents. I appreciated the characters presented but was disappointed in that they were developed more as caricatures than real people . Read more

The Onion Presents 100 Years of Headlines from America's Finest News Source

Review:Genius book, as others have noted. But the equally genius graphic design also deserves mention. If you look at the book carefully, you'll appreciate how the designers evolve the look of these "front pages," parodying newspaper design from the early part of the century through the USA-TODAYification process that took place in the '80s.

One example: The eagle featured in the title banner at the top of each page is suddenly dropped in the late "psychedelic" '60s and replaced with an onion wi... Read more

50 Questions for Insane Conversations
50 Questions for Insane Conversations

Review:Not as good as getting a "real" Klosterman release, but this what-if deck of cards is thought-provoking, most of them featuring Klosterman's off-the-wall wit.

It has potential for party fun, assuming your crowd includes mostly pop-culture-obsessed, half-drunk philosophers.

One downside: About half of the questions previously appeared in "Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs." Readers of that book won't find as much new material. But if it has been a few years since you read SD&C, it's fu... Read more
