3.5 stars, rounded up.
I've long been intrigued by Jacobs' books. An author, taking a theme and embracing it for a year or so, then detailing it in a book. What a way to gain some insight vicariously, and possibly laugh a bit while doing it. Thankfully, this title was finally available through one of my libraries, and it fulfilled my expectations.
Jacobs ably narrates his own title (and I'm hoping he narrates his other audiobooks too). In the beginning (ha!), he describes himself as agnostic, and that's probably pretty close to my religious slant. I'd say that he nailed his quest to literally follow the bible. I learned a number of weird and arcane biblical suggestions/commandments, and am impressed by Jacobs' ability to deal with them all, as well as to admit when he had failed. Also, kudos to his wife, who seemed to put up with a ton of stuff many women would not.
