I loved the majority of these stories. Kind of weird and funky. He also wrote The Family Fang, which I loved!

Heard about this book on NPR years ago, bought it, then proceeded to ignore it. I enjoyed every story, especially the first, and I'll read anything Kevin Wilson writes from here forward. I also appreciated the Q and A in the back.

Really enjoyed the chaotic ones. Author's brain goes some interesting places.
My favorites were Grand Stand In, Blowing Up on the Spot, Mortal Kombat, and Worst-Case Scenario.
Did not like but will NEVER forget The Shooting Man.
