Title: Nice guy without much of a story to tell
Product review: I've enjoyed watching Richard Karn on "Home Improvement" over the years, but found this book to be a disappointment. There just isn't very much substance to this story about his home remodeling experience. The book has lots of white space, and some obvious things aren't there (like a floor plan or before and after photos) that would have really brought some life to the text. The narrative is somewhat choppy, with brief mentions of some aspects of the project but no real explanation. I've had several smaller-scale remodeling projects done in my home and found most of the "tips" listed pretty obvious. Also, while there were a few interesting bits about the show and Karn's earlier career, at least part of this material read like a collection of one-liners. I could almost hear the rim-shot as I read each punchline. Overall, not worthwhile.
