Customer Review:
This is actually my SECOND copy of this book. The first copy I bought in a garage sale....I laughed myself silly...shared it with every girl in the neighborhood.....and then mailed it to my friend in Seattle to share with her friends.

2.Mommy Knows Worst: Highlights from the Golden Age of Bad Parenting AdviceMommy Knows Worst: Highlights from the Golden Age of Bad Parenting Advice
from Three Rivers Press
Price: $12.24

Customer Review:
Another winner for James Lileks, whose work is hilarious, bordering on hysterical. Even after having read this and other works of Mr. Lileks before, when I read them again, I cannot stop laughing. Do check out his website, too. It's just as funny.

3.Gastroanomalies: Questionable Culinary Creations from the Golden Age of American CookeryGastroanomalies: Questionable Culinary Creations from the Golden Age of American Cookery
from Crown
Price: $16.29

Customer Review:
Lileks's flights of imaginative language are laugh out loud comic and at its best a 'poetry of disgust'. His ear and imagination are so exquisitely refined, he makes most modern poets look like hacks and wannabes. The emotional intensity doesn't let up. But there is more than 'disgust'. What makes... more info

5.FRESH LIESFRESH LIES
from Pocket

Customer Review:
Reading James Lileks after a long, hard day (or even in the middle of one) is like a refreshing drink of cool water. He's that good, and that good for you. Witty, self-deprecating, erudite, observant, mordantly intelligent and yet painfully aware of what a blessing it is to be alive...this guy is... more info

6.[no image]Notes of a Nervous Man: Notes of a Nervous Man
from Pocket

Customer Review:
James Lileks has been compared to Dave Barry, and in many ways you might find the comparison apt because there is of course an overlap in attitude and "content". Of course "content" is not an issue in either of these great guys' books or columns. Both can write about absolutely abything and make it... more info

7.[no image]Falling up the Stairs: 2
from Dutton Adult

Customer Review:
Mr. Lileks entertains in his newspaper work and I am a devotee of his web blog; he sprinkles amusing metaphors throughout his work. With this novel however, his hand was way too heavy with the simile shaker and the result renders the book nearly unreadable. I had to black the adverbs out with a... more info
