Have you read Furiously Funny by Jenny Lawson?

If so, I am curious about your review of the book. I bought it because it was a National Bestseller and got rave reviews. To me it was just a long manic rant and wasn't funny at all. I forced myself to finish it because I figured there must be something good about the book somewhere. If there is...I couldn't find it. Taxidermy raccoons, dead kittens and a steady stream of put downs of her husband. I think he is a Saint. I would really like to read HIS book.

I thought it was funny and found myself laughing out loud many times. Not all of it was, of course and it was kind of long so I read it in bits. I like quirky humor 🙂

@tucsongal , thank you for your reply. This is why I asked. A huge majority seems to agree with you. Maybe I just need a tune-up on my sense of humor. Smiley Wink Anyone else read it?

I have not and do not intend to read this mentioned book.  Its just not my type of read, and I do not remotely find taxidermied animals or dead kittens funny at all.

 

So @cody2 dont feel as though you have to tweak your sense of humor.
