“Learning the Ropes” (the pirate story) and “The Big Nap,” were quite amusing. The rest? Not so much.

Pretty quick read. I mostly liked it but some of the bits were just ok. Having said that, his rules of boxing chapter mad me spit up my drink. I have read that chapter to everyone who will listen.

This was the first book I read by Simon Rich, but it won't be the last. I absolutely loved his sense of humour, his witty observations about the world, and his take on what it means to be human.

I adored some of the stories. "Learning the Ropes" was my absolute favourite, followed closely by "LaserDisc" and "Beauty and the Beast." A few were really good -- like "The Big Nap" (strong vibes of Boss Baby in this one!) and "Case Study." And while I admit to my eyes glazing over while reading "Screwball," I'm sure baseball fans will find plenty to enjoy.

Overall, this was a wonderfully quirky collection of well-thought-out, genuinely funny stories with lots of heart.
