I'm Not a Terrorist, But I've Played One On TV: Memoirs of a Middle Eastern Funny Man by Maz Jobrani
3.0
I should probably just stop trying to read memoirs by standup comedians because they're almost never as good as... standup comedy by standup comedians.
There's some interesting commentary about growing up Iranian in California, but... a lot of it is stuff I've heard in his standup, so it's not exactly groundbreaking at this point.
Still: he's definitely a funny guy, and I enjoyed reading about him getting movie-killed by Chuck Norris and entertaining the King of Jordan.
