I had fun with this book as a fan of the show. If you don't watch the show, I'm not sure how much you'll enjoy it. It's a quick read. I was done in less than a day and glad that I had checked it out from the library. It's definitely a guilty pleasure rather than literature, but if that's what you're looking for you'll be satisfied! It is also very interesting to think about the book as an extension of the show. Although there is clearly a real author out there (Tom Straw has been suggested in reviews on amazon) the actor from the show is on the book jacket and the character's name is in the author's spot. I think this raises some interesting questions about how media is evolving.
