Helpful Score: 3

This book is a total disappointment. On his show, Adam comes across as the ultimate likable guy, fascinated by America's culinary culture. Not so the book. In his OWN book, he presents himself as a foul mouthed, boozing womanizer, completely offensive.
Even more, the book is disjointed, badly written, and just plain boring. There are tiny little places where you get a hint of the kind of writer Adam could be. Unfortunately, they are few and far between. One chapter will be not bad, about the food he's discovered, and then the next is some weird attempt to go all Mickey Spillane. It's bizarre.
Overall, I got the impression that Adam was trying to convince us of how "cool" he is. Adam, honey, it totally backfired. Bet you'll see your book in the Dollar Store next week.
