Uncle John's Ahh-Inspiring Bathroom Reader (Bathroom Reader Series)

Rating:
Summary: One of the best books I have ever read!
Review: After receiving this as a Christmas gift, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. People always fidget around in the bathroom to find reading material while doing their business, and the idea of a Bathroom Reader...a book specifically written for everyone (because we all gotta use the john at some point, right?)...is very novel (no pun intended)! So, there I was staring at this book, my newest Christmas present, and I was truly awaiting my next visit to the throne, just to see what the book was all about. The first chance I got in the bathroom, I opened the book, read a few pages and was instantly hooked! Believe me when I say this book has it ALL! Short stories (and interesting ones at that!), jokes, trivia, wordplay, brainteasers, and so much more! Many of the facts are useful, and some of the facts may seem meaningless, but in truth, they are quite interesting! I guarantee this book has something that pertains to everyone!

As the title of this review states, this is one of the best books I have read. So, what are the other best books I have read? Why, the other Uncle John's Bathroom Readers, of course! Buy them, you will not be disappointed! I never thought I would say this, but these Bathroom Readers make doing #2 my #1 priority!

Summary: More info than a person should know!
Review: I got this book for Christmas and have literally made unnecessary trips to the restroom just to read some more. It is filled with thousands of pieces of useful and not-so-useful information. For example, did you know that a penny, because of the extra weight on "heads" will come up "heads" just a little more often than "tails"? Some of Cliff Claven's best quotes from Cheers? That the first videogame was created in 1958? How about the legend of Lincoln's ghost at the Whitehouse? There are also articles on the JFK and Priness Diana conspiracies as well. The author is good at not preaching or putting in his own opinions and the info covers the entire gamut from politics, to true crime, funny stories, strange facts and everything else.
OK, time to end this review and get back to reading more of this book. Alright, one more fact, Did you know that until 1965 pennies were legal tender only up to 25cents? A creditor did not have to accepts more than 25 pennies or more than $10 in coins? Crazy huh?

Summary: Great reading, ten minutes at a time
Review: These books are truly a godsend. No more stacks of magazines, half-read novels, sports sections of newspapers, or catalogues. Uncle John saves us time and space, cramming the book full of interesting facts of variable lengths. Some of the pieces are weak, but mostly you'll find that you'll learn useful trivia and fascinating facts. Thomas Crapper would be proud!

Summary: WOW
Review: What can I say about this book but WOW...it was inciteful, funny, informational and downright wonderful. Both myself and my 17 year old son have read it and love it. We keep it around when we need a laugh, or just a good read we pick it up again and again. We highly recommend it.
