Title: how did this ever get published?
Review: i don't mean to be rude, but this is not a good book. oh, there are one or two decent facts, but overall there is no CONTENT.i'm sure ms. paley is a lovely person, and as such, well-meaning... but that doesn't qualify her as a writer, which she most assuredly is NOT.this book not just weak, it's actually quite lame. is it funny? the only laughs this astonished reader had were at the amateurish attempts at humor. in other words, she tries so darn hard to be funny you just have to laugh...not with her, i'm afraid, but at her.the biggest disappointment is the fact that, rather than a book filled with interesting factoids, one finds slips of information...sub-facts. ALMOST facts. pitiful.i just can't recommend this to anyone (unless it's to learn how NOT to write a book about penises...or any other thing, for that matter). it's not good. not good at all.
