This is a pretty good book, but the cover makes no sense. It would be much better to have a picture of a penguin on the cover.
As the book was advertised as "unpublished emails" and yadda yadda, I was assuming that the entire book would be filled with content that I had never read before. Unfortunately, on receiving the book, I quickly found that almost all the content was available on the website, like the first book. This was somewhat disappointing.If you have never read the website, I do recommend this book. It's hilarious, but not as funny the second time around. Still funny, but not as much. I'm not sure if it's worth $20, if I had to do it again, I might pay $12. As a poor college student, money matters.I'm rating this based on the content (as if I had never read it before).TLDR; If you read the website, don't buy the book unless you want to read it again (or support David Thorne. Actually, just donate money to him directly because he'll get more than he'll get from this book). Or maybe you can give it to a friend as a gift after reading it.
This book is totally irreverent and absolutely hilarious. I do not read the author' s blog regularly, so I cannot speak to prior posters' claims of repetitiveness. What I will say is that certain portions of this book (for me, the Simon complaints) are laugh out loud funny. For me, this was money well spent.
I loved this book, read it in a few hours. David's humor might offend people, but that's just the sarcastic tone I adore, sometimes taken to extremes, for laughs. Oh, and contrary to popular belief, there are a lot of cats in this book. And it's all good.
I find David Thorne to be very amusing-he must be exhausting to live or work with but the rest of us reap the benefits in his books.His cousin stabs him for Pete's sakes however even that event is made funny by David's snarky humor.Thanks we all need a belly laugh and he provides constantly.
The book is small, around 180 pages. I was expecting the book to last longer than a single day, but since 2/3 of the book is either stuff posted on the website or graphic "comics" with cats featuring 6 word bubbles per page, it didn't work out that way.If you keep up with his website, don't bother buying the book.I don't think this book is worth twenty dollars, if it was cheaper I probably still wouldn't buy it given the opportunity to do so again.
It's another book from David Thorne full of his hilariously snarky emails. I got the original edition that got him in trouble with Penguin. Lot's of emails that aren't on his site in this one. All of them are humorous. A short read, but good for going back to on a rainy day for a quick chuckle. It also has pictures.
Once again David Thorne has brought some of the funniest stuff I have ever seen on paper. Everything from his correspondence with his coworker Simon the horse whisperer, a former client who wants stuff for free ( I jump for cash, B!@ch!) his treasure map leading to his neighbor's flood light (hint it's in the mailbox) an argument with comcast, a amazing free snowboard deal offered by Fatty, Fuzzy, Tatooey and Shorty at Function 4 Sports and David's fun times with cats. David is an absolutely brilliant satirist, and I can't wait for another published book! I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who likes to laugh.P.S. Anton gave Brooke the clap.
