Punny and witty. Fun, quick read. A choose-your-own-adventure book for grown-ups. Interesting!

slow-paced
I really really hated this. The author is clearly a bigot and I cannot believe this was published in 2010. Maybe 1960 with the attitude present in this book.

I thought a Choose Your Own Adventure ebook for adults sounded interesting, but it was very cumbersome on my 2-year-old Kindle and I couldn't get into it. Props for innovation.

The first few pages of this "choose your own adventure for adults" were hilarious. But the novelty and hilarity wore off after flipping back and forth to follow each story. Most of the stories were quite short and some of the endings too abrupt, it seemed as if the author had used up the requisite number of pages for the story and simply said to himself "right, this is the last page. How can I finish the story in a few sentences?" I wouldn't bother reading another of this type of book if I saw it on the shelves.

I'm not a huge fan of the Harry McGlade character, so I should have known this wouldn't be for me. I love the choose your own adventure types of stories, but just couldn't get over the silliness.
