I read a couple of excerpts from this collection of short humorous pieces and I thought they were hysterical, but I found the book a bit of a let-down. It made sense when I read the "about the author" and discovered that he was a Harvard senior when he wrote this - it really does feel like the output of a young and overly clever college student. The thing is, for all I felt disappointed while I was reading it, in the days after I kept thinking of stories from the book and laughing. So I think there are some real gems and truisms in this collection, but overall it's a bit weak and fluffy. For the amount of time it takes to read it, it's worth it for the bright spots, but I wanted to like it a lot more than I did.
