One of my favorite LOL books, this was our book club pick and it didn't disappoint. Hilarious, sad and real, and quick with short chapters that kept it ripping along. Recommended.

Absolutely one of my favorite books of the year! If you like Bukowski and Sedaris and that type of tell it like it is and laugh your head off, then this is your book. Hoping the next one is on the way!

This book was, literally, "laugh out loud" hilarious! Jack, the main character, is a disrespectful, loser, punk, yet I suddenly found myself rooting for him halfway through the book. "Those rich guys are right. Money can't buy happiness, because happiness is everywhere. It's free, like air."

Ugh, this book was not only a disappointment, it was downright awful. Not at all what I was expecting. This book appealed to me at first because it takes place in Spokane but the constant swearing, references to sex and the generally disgusting descriptions of various things was a huge turn off. I mistakenly thought this was going to be a book of short stories., which might have made for a more enjoyable read, but somehow I doubt it.

Kirkus calls it Buchowski-esque, yes, but with a giant helping of Hunter S. Thompson and David Sedaris too. Laughed out loud in many spots, and learned some things about finance I had heard about, but now understand. Smart and funny, and made me think all the crappy first jobs I had. Hopefully this author isn't a one trick pony, cause I like his fast and easy to read writing style. I can see this becoming a cult classic for the college generation.
