btwalsh 's review for:
Paddle Your Own Canoe: One Man's Principles for Delicious Living
by Nick Offerman
Original review, having read the book, 2 stars: Started funny, then fell off a cliff. Not sure what I expected, but the first few chapters were great, then the rest droned on and overstayed its welcome
Updated review, after having listened to Offerman's reading in the audiobook, 3 stars: Much better as an audiobook, as after all this book is basically written like a long, rambling podcast. It is not a cohesive comedic memoir in the way that Trevor Noah's "Born a Crime" is; rather, it's an amusing list of anecdotes and Ron Swanson-like quotes despite his best efforts to differentiate himself as a person from that character.
