I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell by Tucker Max
3.0
I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell pioneered the genre of writing seen in books like Total Frat Move and in GroupMe chats like those I saw in college. A slightly less funny, significantly-less-family-friendly bastard child of Animal House. Decent continuity, and the writing isn't bad. Whether you like it or not, Tucker Max shaped the 21st century male psyche. The trend of increasing dissatisfaction with the book is understandable as our society's adherence to political correctness also rises.
As Tucker Max channels his lack of self respect into an entertaining saga of debauchery, many readers will find that they can channel their own feelings of inadequacy and insecurity into criticisms of our society's most popular scapegoat: the frat boy. While some may suggest that the book's greatest irony is that someone not involved in Greek life redefined how Americans perceive fraternities, I believe the most endearing is that a book which stands as a triumphant exhibition of acute masculinity (and boarishness) has contributed to the continued emasculation of our society.
