My husband introduced me to Dan through Giant Bomb and I’ve been thoroughly entertained ever since. The Dumbest Kid is no exception. A collection of stories too bizarre to be made up made me laugh again and again. Not amazing literature by any means, but definitely a fun escape. I’m waiting for the next installment that shares the behind the scenes of a Taco Bell wedding. Maybe co-written by Bianca Ryckert?!

The organization of this book was absolutely baffling, but otherwise the writing wasn’t too bad. I don’t think Dan Ryckert is as funny to me as he is to some people, and I’m giving this book to Goodwill now that I’ve finished it. (That being said, I didn’t hate it. I just can’t imagine why I’d ever want to read it again.)

Great book. The most cheerful book I've read this year, and its entertainingly written. With the exception of one chapter that touches on a tragic event that the author happened to be at, it's hijinks from the beginning and end.

An assemblage of insane stories told by an extremely likable narrator. One of my favorite titles for a book in a long time.

The blurb for this informed me that the author is well known in some circles, but I don't travel in those circles, so had no context for this autobiography. Some of the pranks described made my stomach hurt. The guy can write, though, no doubt about that.
