“I picked this one up because I enjoy a good laugh and because I recognized so many names from the contributing author list. It's taken from The Believer magazine and based on Amy Sedaris's advice column "Sedaratives". I was expecting to read some funny advice to readers dilemma's that most definitely would not be approved by any therapist.
Instead I slogged through what I know had to be made up questions (and if they weren't then society is getting even more stupid by the minute) - and that pretty much ruined the book for me.
I wanted to read an actual advice column with inappropriate advise. That's funny. I didn't want to read a book full of spoon fed, set-up comedy routines. I'll watch the Comedy Network for that.
So I may have snickered about three times. To me that warrants 3 stars. My advice would be to pass on this book.”
