Merrill Markoe at her best! July 30, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought TWO copies of this - - one for me - - I LOVE Merrill's work, and one for a friend who was home recuperating from knee surgery. We shared our thoughts on her funniest essays! A winner!
AVOID at all costs August 1, 2006 5 out of 29 found this review helpful
As a great fan of dog stories, I had enjoyed one of this author's tales excerpted in a dog story anthology, and thought that I might relish more of her work. Was I ever WRONG!!! Half or less of the book was related to canines, and then often remotely. Many of her works (this is a compendium of essays) are spoiled by her frequent use of the most vile, crude, and vulgar expletives, always unnecessary and adding nothing to the story. Although humorous on the rarest of occasions, this tome consists mainly of the mindless babblings of the typically self-loathing liberal. Unfit even as a chew toy for your pup!
Great book. Hilarious. I loved it. March 2, 2005 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Made me laugh out loud. You can read it in one sitting. Buy it.
buy it January 27, 2005 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
This book is so freakin' funny I almost can't stand it. The back of my head aches from laughing. All her writing is perfect. She's the kind of girl you want to hang out with so you start sounding like her after a while.
Laugh Out Loud and Until You're Crying May 8, 1999 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
i think this is probably the funniest book i've ever read ... people hearing you laugh while reading this will think you have gone insane and you will want to read it to them ... after reading this, i had hoped that merrill markoe had written dozens of other books, but alas, i only found one other (which was also very funny) ... maybe she'll read this and publish more. hope so.
