review 1: What a funny and weird book. I loved every minute of it. Some of the ideas were just so absolutely ridiculous I laughed out loud. I think it’s pretty obvious that this book is in no way intended to be taken seriously, but I’m sure that some people will still be butt hurt over its stupidity. It’s meant to be stupid and funny, people need to relax and remember how to take a joke. Some people seem to think that everything must be taken seriously and everything is offensive. I think those people are just looking for something to complain about and should be ignored to the fullest extent. If you are easily offended, please don’t bother reading this book. There is every type of stereotypically offensive joke made. This book is the opposite of politically correct so if y... moreour race, sex, creed, mental capabilities, sexual orientation, or fashion sense are easily offended, please don’t read this book. Only people with a healthy and twisted sense of humor could possibly enjoy this book. Thank goodness I am one of those people! I enjoyed the crap out of this book. I really did. There are so many funny spots! There is a reference to how Count Chocula came to exist as a vampire and how his cereal came to be. There are little snippets of interesting historical lessons as well. Some of which, while not widely known, are in fact true. Much is not, but it’s still fun to think it could be if vampires were real. Such as, can you guess which US President was a vampire? I had no idea before reading this, but now that I have, it kind of makes sense. Dracula is a Racist highlights many of the stereotypical vampire mythology as well as mentions quite a few vampire themed pop culture references. This includes books, music, movies, tv shows and even video games. Everything from becoming a vampire to killing them is mentioned. The illustrations in this book are pretty funny. My favorite was the one about “Gaydar”. The first half of Dracula is a Racist is a bit funnier than the 2nd half, but the 2nd half still holds its own. I shouldn’t have to say this but everything in this book is fiction. People need to use their imaginations more. Vampires aren’t real either. Just putting that out there in case you missed that memo.I would recommend this book to anyone who shares my dark sense of twisted humor, can take a joke and doesn’t easily confuse the worlds of imagination verses reality. I might recommend it to a few sensitive people just for fun to see their reaction, but that’s just one example of my sense of humor.
review 2: I kept seeing a lot of positive reviews about this book. I also don't have a lot of experience with satire and reading it. I unfortunately, to be very frank, hated this book.In the beginning, it was fun to read, he made fun of certain characters most of us would know. The Richard Nixon part made me laugh quite a bit. xDHowever, as the book went along, it just got less and less funnier. In fact so much I had to take a break from reading by ending at the sixth chapter. The problem with this guy's humor is that he has some good points and is intelligent. His over the top sexual inneduos and sex humor really is what made me stop reading. He kept going at this thinking this is what is funny. I understand some people like this grostque humor and I can appreciate some sex humor, but this...was just too much for my stomach to handle.If you want to find actual, logical information about vampires, don't look for books, look on wikipedia. It's probably the most unbiased resource you can find on vampires less
