review 1: I've always been really into these fact books.They always supply random facts that I will randomly recall in future conversations. I'll begin my sentence with, "I read somewhere that…” therefore as a know-it-all with an extreme thirst for knowledge, fact books are for me. This book had a lot of interesting, random facts that I hadn’t heard before. From facts about STDs and bottled water to more about sexual assault and a fish that swims through urine and lodges itself into urinary tract of people. The only thing I have against this particular book of facts is that the author tried to be special and added personalized jokes to each fact they listed. And some facts were serious (ie. about sexual assault), and the author’s comments/jokes just felt unnecessary and cras... mores. It got to the point, that after a while I ended up just skipping the jokes and exclusively read the facts instead. This still lead me to give the book a ⅗ rating, because it’s not a book I would want to reread (a 5/5 rating), but the jokes made it just an okay book, so it gets an okay rating.
review 2: The facts themselves are generally boring, certainly not overly interesting. The worst part about the book are the author's comments - sophomoric at BEST, and typically insensitive, jumping the border into insulting and demeaning on all sorts if subjects.Picking up women during mammograms, using gender dysmorphism as the butt of a joke...These are just examples that I encountered while reading the first 10% of the book. Simply stated, put it down and walk away quickly. less
