gosh. this was my first read as far as collections of short stories goes. i’m worried that any other collection will forever pale in comparison. there is truly something for everyone in this book. the dark comedy and astute life honesty intertwined throughout each story had me smiling for many reasons while turning each page. this is a great read for those who may feel overwhelmed by a consecutive storyline, it is easy to feel accomplished when each chapter is a “finished” story. although, bob-waksberg will consistently leave you at the end of a story/chapter sad to say goodbye and feeling like it couldn’t possibly be finished at all. i will be lending this book to many friends.

I really loved some of these short stories and those are the ones I’m still thinking about. I couldn’t really get into or didn’t love some of the others. There were a lot of sentences that just made it.

audiobooks the way to go w this one! loved hearing different people reading each story and how animated they got with it. i will admit i went into this expecting it to hit harder than i t does but it was still a fun read w some heartpang-y moments :)
