Guy's Bood

I am 55 years old, a professional, and I am happy to tell you that I loved this book. But I liked American Pie (though I didn't think it was right that they put the Czechoslovakia girl on the net) and other idiotic, immature, and lowbrow stuff too. It is for a person who can let themselves go back to age 13 and re-experience the mindset and erection set. I wonder, maybe my mindset hasn't changed in 42 years and I am not going back.

Love the book, hated the reading

This is one of my favorite books of all time, and I had the idea that maybe revisiting it in casual audiobook fashion would be a great way to reconnect with the piece...WRONG.

Paul Michael Garcia (the voice) sounds like a Computer reading words one at a time, over annunciating the wrong points and rolling words like he is in a bad Shakespeare in the park play...

This story is ALL Nick Twisp... and it was necessary to find a person who embodied this confused, vulnerable and evolving character. This readers speak and spell reading style is not the correct casting.

Before you buy this!!

Be careful not to waste a whole credit on this. This is is a 3 book series that has another audiobook that includes all 3 titles. Spending a credit on this is a complete waste. I didn’t even realize it until it was too late to return it. Search the title in Audible and make sure you get the one that has all 3 books.

Extremely vulgar but Outrageously Entertaining

this book is odd strange and weird but for some reason I recommend it. I think it actually does some up the mind of a teenage boy. enjoy but please be over right teen LOL 😅

A frustrating waste of time

No likable characters. Except Ferguson. No depth. This is the first time in my life I will say the mediocre movie was better. Above all else it wasn’t even funny.

l

not the entire book! quite disappointed in that aspect. still it's a solid performance. yep.

It was bound to happen…

Any additional comments?

As they put Michael Cera’s face on the cover, shouldn't they have had him read this? While the narrator did a good job, I wonder if the punch lines would have hit better if Cera read this as he had played Nick Twisp.

I was greatly disappointed in how I didn't find this as humorous as the movie adaptation of the book. There are no plans for me to read the other books in this series.

If you have not seen the movie, I suggest you do so, but only AFTER reading the book. It has always been common for me to enjoy a movie and then research if there was a book (not a novelization) available for me. Once I’ve read the book, I’ll sometimes go back and mentally fill in the story gaps. But that is mostly due to the book being so much more than the movie ever could be. In this case, I don’t suggest reading the book after seeing the movie. You might be as disappointed as I am.

Disapointing.

I purchased this because i love the movie and books are normally better than the movie. But not in this case. do yourself a favour and watch the movie and forget the book. It was completely lost of me and the ending sucks.

Very Different

I loved the movie and the book while good has been changed a great deal. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it but not quite as much as I enjoyed the movie, which in my opinion was better thought out.
