NOT WORTH CONSUMING

I’m just going to copy and paste my amazon review.

I couldn’t put this book down and finished it in one night. So why am I giving it only 1 star? Because I expected something more frankly. I was very let down by the shabby plot. OK so maybe for this style of book, the plot is unimportant. Regardless, it’s just about a guy who is waiting for an interview that never happens. Then the “climax” is a huge let down, and then the book seems to fall apart into a series of stories including the character’s past. The chapter about “Britney Spears”, though the name is never mentioned, left a lot, and I mean A LOT to be desired. With the amount of hate some people have for her, I would have much preferred a silly vicious rant from someone who can’t spell. Yes, that’d be more entertaining. Each chapter is about three pages long. I guess it’s good for those with a short attention span. This may not be seen as a downfall, but for some reason it annoys me with this book.

If you just like reading graphic novels, maybe you’ll find this more interesting than me.

I admit that some of it IS entertaining, that’s why I picked up the book, hoping I’d find more of this entertainment within. Ultimately the entertainment value severely lacked, as I kept hoping something would happen other than the same old thing. He plays with himself and talks about how everyone wants him. He mentions everyone looks like David Bowie, though a twist of David Bowie. It’s kind of cute, but it really does get repetitive and unimaginative after awhile. Also he uses “Watch Out” far too much, and in an annoying fashion.

Joseph is a fantastic salesman. Let me stress FANTASTIC. He has many followers though most of them have never actually read his book. But it seems that those who have, LOVE his book. I’m the odd person out here apparently.

If you buy this book and randomly read passages with your friends you will most likely be entertained. As a whole book, I wasn’t impressed though. I wouldn’t buy this book for the price it’s offered now. I am trying to sell it for $10 though myself. I just don’t want to lose so much money on this because I really feel it was a waste of my money. Unfortunate.
