Dave Barry Is from Mars and Venus

Summary: This book is hilarious of course because Dave Barry wrote it
Review: This book had me laughing out loud. I especially liked the bit on consumer packaging. If you've never read any of Dave Barry's works, this is a good place to start.

Summary: Laugh out loud funny!
Review: This book made me laugh outloud. I highly recommend it.
This book, along with Bruce Cameron's "8 Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter" and Debbie Farmer's "Don't Put Lipstick on the Cat!" will make a perfect gift for anyone.

Summary: Hilarious, but not QUITE his best
Review: This is the 2nd funniest book I have ever read, next to Dave Barry Talks Back. For whatever reason, I felt that Dave occasionally forced too many jokes in the early stages, such as the Synchronied Drowning skit (which is still funny). As a result, I didn't laugh as hard or as constantly as I did with his other stuff. BUT (a gigantic BUT), it is still INSANELY FUNNY. Whereas I was able to read 3 or 4 paragraphs before breaking into hysteria with DBTB, this one takes me about 7 or 8 pages before the inevitable happens. The topics this time around range from opera, golf, snowboarding, boring people and animal humour, but nothing leaves a lasting impression as the LEMON HARANGUE, DEATH BY TOOTHPICK or (THIS COLUMN IS FUNNY), although INTRODUCTION, BORRRRRRINGGG and WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE sure come close. In all, the 2nd best place I know for incessant belly laughs, and a book that nearly 99.5% of its readers will love. But I happen to think that 99.8% will love Dave Barry Talks Back. Even if it wins the silver medal, I still think this book is an acceptable alternative to having a social life.

Summary: Stop, Dave...you're killing me!
Review: This is the guaranteed best work of Dave Barry's recycled columns you'll ever read! The best way to read this book is to 1.Place two Pop-Tarts in your toaster set to "maximum." 2.Begin reading this book. When the flames from your toaster reach @ six feet in height, remove flaming Pop-tarts and taste that crispy goodness while turning the pages of this great read. (NOTE:extinguish flames before ingestion.) This is the only way to read Dave's works, and I'm sure he'll agree with me on this.

Summary: Again and Again he proves himself!
Review: You know, I can't believe anyone could COMPLAIN about this guy. He has talent. He has a very keen and sharp wit that he underplays so he doesn't REALLY offend anyone. If you read this book without laughing out loud (most likely in public, which is very embarrasing especially for people like myself who sometimes snort when they are really amused) you just aren't human.
