Rating: Summary: Hilarious quick read Review: Dave Barry is at his best in this novel about growing older, wider and dumber. His sophomoric humor will instantly put you in a better mood. This novel also makes a great bathroom book, since there is no plot, character development, beginning or ending to get bogged down in. It is super fun read and I highly recommend it!
Rating: Summary: Hilarious! Review: Easily the most enjyable Barry book I have read. Coincidentally, it was my first as well.Barry is a master at comedy, and this only proves it further. Highly recommended!

Rating: Summary: TOO FUNNY Review: having read a great number of dave barry books, emphasis on the word "great," i can assure you this is a rollicking good read. a word of note for the dave addicts out there who haven't read this book: it contains one of the saddest, most poignant passages dave's ever committed to paper. a must read, for that alone.
Rating: Summary: Laughed out loud Review: I knew I had to buy the book when, while standing in the bookstore, casually picking up books and reading a few pages, I picked up this Dave Barry gem, read a few lines, and burst out laughing. He is an unusually gifted author who is able to transform the mundane everyday things that we all take for granted, and find pearls of humor in them. Dave is the kind of guy that all guys would like for a beer drinking bud. High raves for Dave Barry
Rating: Summary: Borring Middle Age Jokes Review: I learn from my experience if only a handful of people rated 5 stars don't believe it. I only read 15% of this book, and it is really really borring. I didn't laugh one bit. This book say if I am not laughing than I don't have humor. That's a lame excuse for a boring book. If this is really 5 stars, I can write a 10 stars book for people to laugh at my intelligent and witty jokes, not stupid unlaughable jokes like this book. But, Amazon is way cool, 5 stars bookstore. I have bought quite a few books (> 50) at Amazon, and I will continue to buy it. Recommend: I did laugh with for better or for worst by Lynn Johnston. Clean and witty whole some family jokes. Judy Carter is also very funny. These two ladies are way cool !

Rating: Summary: One of the best of Dave's many hysterically funny books. Review: Maybe it was just that I'm very nearly at the age Dave was when he wrote this book. Maybe it's just that my son is currently the same age that his son was then. Maybe the book just "spoke" to me. Maybe it just "resonated". Maybe I'm just rambling. But then again, maybe the book is just hysterically funny, and WAY, WAY, too true. In any case, it's definitely a must-read.

Rating: Summary: The First and Best Dave Barry book I read. Review: One could say I was having a Midlife Crisis when I read this book- but,then, I read it when I was nine, so that would put my life span at about 18. All right, I was a downright precocious child, but it sure did give me a few more reasons to laugh at my parents. I laughed, and cried. Laughed hysterically at all the jokes (even the ones I didn't get) and cried when my mother took the book away after I asked, "What's a sex life?".
