Customer Reviews

Merrill Markoe at her best!

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!

Great book. Hilarious. I loved it.

Made me laugh out loud. You can read it in one sitting. Buy it.

buy it

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

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.

I've never laughed so hard while reading a book!

This is by and large the funniest book I've ever read. Whether you own a dog or not, you can't help but laugh from cover to cover. I've recommended this book to all my friends, I've even bought a copy or two as a gift.
