The Moe Chronicles: Tales of a Young Urban Failure

Rating:
Summary: Check out the great review below:
Review: "Baby Boomers' babies have been called a lot of things: slackers, gen xers, twentysomethings. Here's a new one: Yuffies, which stands for Young Urban Failures. Erik Moe chronicles their couch-riding, microbrew-swilling, reality-biting, job-jumping, channel-surfing ways in Tales of a Young Urban Failure. It's the perfect book for anyone who has gone 237-plus days without a date, secretly believes that, with just a bit of luck, he could have been a rock star, and scores points only on Sega Hockey." ------Columbus Dispatch -------------If you like Tales of a Young Urban Failure, check out Taxi Driver Wisdom by Risa Mickenberg. You will never look at a taxi driver the same way again! All published by Chronicle Books.

Summary: May be the funniest book I've ever read
Review: A friend and I stumbled across this book in a Barnes & Noble three years ago, and though we opened our copies to different pages, we both started laughing so hard we were doubled over, and we couldn't get to the cash register fast enough. I let people borrow my copy occasionally, but only for short times and after extracting a promise to care for it. Erik Moe captures *everything* about the awkwardness of transitioning from kid to adult in your 20s, watching your friends get married, being stuck in the lame dues-paying job with jerk coworkers, struggling to become a grownup while still enjoying the things you loved in college. I can't do this book justice with mere words. Find yourself a copy!

Summary: Riproaringly Funny
Review: I grabbed this book right off the sale rack and flipped through exactly one page and went up and bought it. I'm not what you'd call an 'impulse buyer' (read cheap). This book is for anyone who is 25-35. In that age group this book is nearly autobiographical! For anyone who's ever spent more on a case of beer than they have on that week's groceries. Read this. There are only about 5 books that are truly funny in my opinion- this is one of them.

Summary: Hilarious! Great book, especially for Generation X-ers
Review: I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. This is a light and humorous "slice of life" type book. I think Generation X-ers will love it and will be able to relate to it the most. I have given a copy to each of my closest friends as gifts and every one of them loved it as much as I did

Summary: May be the funniest book I've ever read
Review: Moe brilliantly captures the frustrations and pleasures of those between jobs. This was unequivically the funniest book I have read in years. One wonders how autobiographical this book is and whether Moe is still alive!

Summary: THE FUNNIEST BEST book/stick figure comic story ever!
Review: Ok, so I don't even usually read for "fun." But, I my sister had this book so I read it a while back, and it was HILarious! THen, luckily, she still had it. So I just read it again yesterday. It made me laugh just as much as it did the first time I read it! PLus, it's easy enough to breeze through in just one sitting because it's so good. Even though I'm only 20 and not necessarily in the age range that this book seems to target, I can definitely still relate to certain parts. I rate "The Moe Chronicles" the best book I've read so far when it comes to humor! It's the type of book you just can't stop to put down the first, second, or even third time you read it! I don't have one bad thing to say about it....
