About book Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Sausages (2011)
I finally finished this damn book. It started off so promising, and that first chapter is absolutely hysterical. Unfortunately it's all downhill from there. The book just drags and drags with boring characters and no real plot, until the very very end where it suddenly comes back together with the initial story. If this had been a short story, with the beginning and end in there and maybe just 1 chapter from the middle of the book, this would have been enjoyable. As it was, this was NOT a comedic book and I had to force myself just to finish it. The one where someone at the office is drinking Polly's coffee, and there's something very strange about the dry-cleaners.This had funny moments, especially in the beginning, and I found Don to be a delightful character from start to finish -- but the setup was worlds better than the payoff. It began to feel like the author had set a lot of things in motion that he really couldn't think of a good use for, so in the end any objection a reader could come up with would be countered by "It must have been changed retroactively."Also, every woman except Polly is either unpleasantly passive or unpleasantly aggressive.

Fun, but it could have been condensed to make it better. I'd probably go 3.7
