Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Another Tucker Max book. Similar to his other books. Even starts with excerpts from previous books. But does have lots of new material including being detained at airport and nearly getting kicked out of law school. ( ) Sloppy Seconds is the final Tucker Max book with about half of it being stories from his other books. The new material is as funny as his other stories in previous books but not all that long or fully detailed. Short read and funny, good book for anyone unsure if they wanna spend the money on his other books and for people who liked his other books. Sloppy Seconds proved to be a quick read, and took me a couple of hours to finish. This book is a bit shorter than his other works as well, so naturally it did not take me long to flip through. By now, I quite enjoy Tucker’s narrative style… it’s like talking to an old, hilarious friend that you find a bit ridiculous but are still fond of at the same time (against your better judgment, sometimes). I got some laughs out of it, but not as many as I used to. For this reason, I think that it was a good choice on Tucker’s part to allow us to download this book for free. It’s a bunch of leftover stories that’s he’s accumulated, not quite juicy enough for a full-on book, but not something you want to leave collecting dust on your hard drive, either.As an “introductory” book, for those readers who have not yet encountered the writings of Tucker Max, this is a great way to test the waters and see if this type of humor is something you might be interested in reading. For someone who has read other, funnier works of Tucker’s, however, this book is a bit tamer than some of his other fare. I won’t really go into details on this book because it’s pretty much self-explanatory, par for the course Tucker Max humor at this point. As I’ve said countless times about Tucker’s books, they are a certain kind of polarizing humor: either you’ll find it somewhere on the spectrum between amusing and hilarious, or you’ll think it’s the most offensive, asinine poor excuse for literature that you’ve ever laid your hands on. Sometimes, you might even find that you’re of both opinions. The point is, if you’re looking for profundity, look elsewhere. If, however, you’re searching for a funny, quick read that will make you think that The Hangover was an autobiography of Tucker Max, then this is the book for you. Give it a try. If you don’t like it, drop it. If you do and want more, go out and buy all the Tucker Max books. You won’t be disappointed. And since it’s free, what do you have to lose? Your time, maybe, but certainly not your money. no reviews | add a review
