Book Reviews of Naked
Book Review: "Clever", but not really that funny.
Summary: 3 Stars
I had at least 3 different people recommend this book to me. I just kept being told how unbelievably funny David Sedaris was. So I finally picked up this book and checked it out. Honestly, it really wasn't that funny. Each chapter is a separate story unto itself, each from a different time period in his life. They were fairly interesting stories, and really not bad, but "hilarious"? No way. Not even close. I can't think of any time where I even more than just chuckled. I don't know, maybe it's not my type of humor. I just don't get what all the fuss is about. Most likely won't be reading another of his novels, there's more important things out there, and honestly, these random stories don't say much of anything really important.
