Away with Words: An Irreverent Tour Through the World of Pun Competitions by Joe Berkowitz

4.0

I picked this one up on a lark, and it was funny and entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the author's attempts at improving his pun technique, and, as a fan of language and picking things apart to see how they work, his dissection of what makes a bad pun was interesting.

This one's not going to stick with me, but it was not super heavy, which is what I wanted.
