Penn & Teller's How to Play in Traffic

This is a decent read for Penn & Teller fans. The level of tricks presented tended to fall in a "dad joke" range for me. Some of the tricks were simply beyond my capacity of appreciation and left me with a feeling of "why, just why?" I'm too old, too cynical, too female, or need to bear children.

That being said, there's amusing bits and certainly sections that made me laugh. The writing is a little iffy in spots, but when the topics get slightly more serious (there's a few discussions about freedom in entertainment and travel) the voice gets a lot stronger and more engaging.

To those interested in reading this, I would suggest a chapter-at-a-time approach to keep everything lively and fun.

Has some clever tricks, of course, though some of them are much better as hypotheticals. The off-beat stories are the real highlight.
