“I hardly ever watched Seinfeld; I thought the show was base and narcissistic, not to mention hardly ever funny. But this book is beyond funny. It's difficult for me to reconcile these two facts, but nevertheless: this is a truly hilarious book.”

“Good stuff. Bits of Seinfeld material from his stand up. Worth reading if you've never caught him live.”

“Being a HUGE fan of the "Seinfeld" NBC sitcom, this book was just an added bonus from the talented Jerry Seinfeld that I loved! It's a thin volume, and something you can go back to time and again for a few belly twitching laughs! ”

“I had forgotten how witty this guy is ever since I stopped watching Seinfeld's re-runs. Watching the Bee Movie made me remove this of a dusty shelf and re-read it :) Most of what is said is said,most of what is talked about is talked about - but nevertheless you re-visit your own life and smaile - "oh yeah", uh-huh", "right"!!”

“This collection mostly consists of monologues that you see in the opening sequence of most of the Seinfeld episodes (about half). I finished this book in about 2 hours. It is a very enjoyable read even knowing many of the punchlines. Seinfeld is kind of a "cleaned-up" version of Lewis Black and he likes to focus on the ironic. He presents some small tidbits about growing up such as his father's sign business and perhaps a full biography would be a worthwhile project.

I give this book 4 and a half stars and might have rated it higher had it been longer and included more new material.”
