Dont Waste Your Time/Money March 10, 2006 66 out of 100 found this review helpful
I have read some of Tuckers stories,they are available online. Recently, I borrowed this book, only to find out it is more of the same! Its basically the same drunken,wild,smart-ass frat-boy antics,embellished and put in print.His ability to write is mediocre at best,and the "wild and crazy" stories grow tedious.If you really love the stories on his site,and(ideally)have a below average IQ,then this book is right up your alley. I cant believe this made the NY Times bestseller list(albeit #30,or so),and that its getting such great reviews here. It must be all the brownnosing groupies from the Tucker Max messageboard. Some 'well read' fans have compared him to Hunter S Thompson, or even more laughably, Charles Bukowski. Its hard to believe they were able to put down the crackpipe long enough to finish Tuckers book, much less read a novel by Bukowski. Never underestimate the stupidity of people.Spend your cash on something worthwhile.
This guy is a tool. January 3, 2006 59 out of 96 found this review helpful
There are few things more pathetic than some guy approaching 30 years old who feels the need to brag about his drunken exploits. One of those more pathetic things is writing a book about false drunken exploits. If Max was half as great as he made himself out to be in this farce of a book, then I'd recommend it. But he's not. Save yourself the $9 and go approach some pimple-faced teenager on the street and have him recount what he did last weekend- it will surely be more interesting, more truthful, and far less self-serving than this tool's "book."
poorly written and just plain not funny July 11, 2007 59 out of 84 found this review helpful
This is in fact the third negative review I've written for this book. For some reason they keep on getting deleted. The "writing" consists of extremely repetitive stories about getting drunk and yada yada. I partied in college plenty but came out with better stories. I agree with another reviewer that if you haven't gotten out much you might find this amusing. Otherwise, it will just put you to sleep.
Probably the Worst Book I've Ever Read January 1, 2006 58 out of 93 found this review helpful
My brother gave me this book as a Christmas present, thinking that I might find it entertaining. Unfortunately, after reading a few of the stories, I was just bored with the whole thing. Ok dude, we get it. You are a bad guy. You like to drink. You have hooked up with some girls. I guess if I had never done any of the above, I would be able to live vicariously through such a book. I even checked out his website and the only thing that I really found funny is the fact that this guy has got to be close to 30 years old and he still hangs out in fraternity houses. It's probably time to move on with your life. I can't believe people are stupid enough to pay for such badly written stories. I guess this was my brother's payback for not getting him a present last year.
Awful book. But where did my first bad review go?? December 29, 2006 56 out of 79 found this review helpful
Why did my bad review disappear? I'm not buying anything off Amazon again if they're censoring the reviews, that's what they're there for. This book is awful, just a bunch of half-true stories with predictable endings. It's pretty easy to think of hilarious dialogue when you have months to think about clever comebacks. I did laugh out loud at several parts of the book, but I rolled my eyes at the book's stupidity many many more times.
