Naked Pictures of Famous People

Summary: Love it!
Review: While I've watched Jon Stewart for years, I really had no idea what to expect in book form. The result was that I wasn't at all disappointed. With its insightful and interesting take on historical and political events, accompanied by wit and humor, this one's a sure bet. Also recently enjoyed two other books, though they are nothing like this one: "Jonathan Strange" and "Bark of the Dogwood."

Summary: Incredible
Review: This is one of the funniest books that I have ever read. The first essay had me rolling over on the floor! Jon Stewart is a comedic master. I can't wait to read his new book, America.

Summary: Jon Stewart can't go wrong
Review: It's true. The Show. This Book. His other book... Just - him... what a cool guy.

So - oh yea - the book -

This is verrrry funny. The chapters are on-and-off with quality but the good ones truly make up for those slightly lacking. It's a very quick read and worth every penny.

Summary: Good book - with exceptions
Review: First I'll admit I love The Daily Show with John Stewart and TiVo it nightly. I enjoyed the book first and foremost for its incredibly interesting take on historical events and the unique narratives. It alternated between very funny, very weird, and kind of dumb. It is a quick read, offers unique glimpses into history, and has its funny moments. I think Stewart can and will do better, but it gets a 3/5 from me because you will be a better person for having read it and you can then sell it back to a half-priced book store.

Summary: The Dead Horse Groans
Review: This post-Arsenio endeavors to compel a disinterested audience to a true Utopia: the nowhere where anywhere is funnywear. Jon's cheeks are too big for his tongue, and self-deprecation reaches a seventh degree of separation. Every joke is purported to possess a grain of truth, but in Jon's case, one must be a child of the corn to taste a sour mash. Simply: I don't get it! It ain't funny! It's bad! Smarmy isn't campy, and Jon isn't either. The horror, the schmorror. Back to you, Jon.
