I've always been a fan of John Hodgman, but I am an especially big fan of his personal essays. Not as poignant as Vacationland, but there were several laugh out loud moments in this one for me.
Vacation land is definitely a 4.25 and this is a 3.75. Still good. But not as good of a recommendation

Mitähän sanoin siitä John Hodgmanin ensimmäisestä elämäkerrallisesta kirjasta? Varmaan jotain että jos pitää Hodgmanin huumorista ja tyylistä, pitää kirjastakin. Sama pätee myös tämän toisen kohdalla. Ei ihan niin koskettava tai henkilökohtainen kuin se eka, mutta hauska on tämäkin.

Read in a day. Engrossing and full of Hodgman wit.
I enjoyed this even more than Vacationland. I also love to pretend I live in a small town (note to self: see if I can volunteer at the diner), I can't wait to be mostly retired and pretend.
This is honestly what I've always wanted John Hodgman books to be. (Those fake facts books threw me for a loop!)
