Post-Herald Barry humor in this particular book is fantastic. Not only is he unfettered by the word-count restrictions of writing a column, I am happy to report that every single chapter is hilarious and fresh. In many of his other books there would be a single, sad, and sometimes serious bummer of a chapter. Might be good for balance, but not my favorite feature.
The only complaint about this book? It is a thin book that has to end. If you add a hundred more chapters as good as the rest of the book, for me it will still be too thin and would end too soon. This is the Nutella of funny books.
