Just because they are "false facts" that doesn't make them funny or less boring. Couldn't finish it. ( )

I can't tell if I wanted to like it, and didn't, really, or if I wanted not to like it and did, kinda, despite myself. It made me laugh, in places. The concept should thrill me. I think it would be excellent in little bits on This American Life. It left me wanting. ( )

Very funny, and I would have liked it more, but the silliness was unceasing and uniform and eventually got a little boring. But I love Hodgman. ( )

I had read the print version a few years ago and found it a joke too clever by half, spread too thin over too many pages. What a difference the audiobook makes. Still, it's probably best consumed in small doses, such as a brief morning/afternoon commute. I'd probably reestablish a 2-star rating had I been forced to listen to the whole thing in one sitting.

I like Hodgeman on The Daily Show, but this book came off as shallow, monotonous, and quite un-funny. Compared with Louis Black's recent book Me of Little Faith, a book with substance and funny at the same time, Hodgeman comes up way short. ( )
